Final HOH Part 1 Jon wins
Final HOH Part 2 Neda Wins
Final HOH Part 3 Jon wins
Jon evicts Neda
Winner of Big Brother Canada 2 Jon

Sabrina, Neda and JOn are the final 3 like it or not one of these people are going to win the twisto grand prize.

I commonly get asked who I want to win or who I think deserves to win? My answer this year is….. They all deserve to win YES even Sabrina but for all different reasons.

Sabrina (Aka Gremlin, hairy gremlin) – If I go back and check the posts done at OBB I would wager that a good 1/4 – 1/3 of them have Sabrina inspired titles. This isn’t because we liked Sabrina (I didn’t really like her until the very end) it’s because she said funny/insane things and backed them up with outrageous behaviour and social game trickery. Most of Canada probably dislikes Sabrina but Canada cannot deny that this season would have been VERY different without her, Season might have been better might have been worse.

Sabrina was a great social player that played too hard in the beginning and screwed up her reputation but miraculously was able to recover and become liked.. (WTF I know). She deserves to win.

Jon (Aka big JAWN) – Jon’s goofy fun loving attitude really shown through during the last 2/3 of the game. Jon’s social game was great maybe not as sharp as Sabrina’s but he didn’t over play like she did. Jon was also able to win competitions and make big strategic moves. All in all he might be the most well rounded player out of the final 3. Proficient in all aspects of the game but not a expert. Jon is most likely Canada’s favourite and will get the jury vote.

Jon is a prime example that you don’t need to know much about Big Brother to win Big Brother. He deserves to win..

Neda (Aka Balls, Ned Balls) – Neda and Jon’s game were so dependent on each other it’s hard to critique them on their own merit. Neda’s social game was the weakest of the bunch and her competition abilities was average. Where she really excelled more than anyone is in long term strategy and tactical execution.

To date she’s probably one of it not the most strategic player to have been on Big Brother Canada. Neda deserves to win..

Am I the only one who thinks Jon w lying about knowing nothing about BB?

Name

You are not alone on that perception. I’ve thought it for some time.

Michael

I don’t know, but I don’t think Heather knew anything about Big Brother. It looked like she didn’t have a clue who Dan Gheesling was. She thought he was just some guy.

Name

Obviously Heather met Dan prior to joining the jury discussion.

d

I don’t think he lied about not knowing big brother, he really knew 0% of what was going on at the beginning of the game/feeds. what i am miffed about is that i feel he lied to canada. he maintained all season how loyal he was to neda, whereas neda straight up said she didn’t think she had a shot against jon and would need to take him out (and turns out, she was RIGHT). some people in canada harpooned neda for saying those things in DR, while jon is the one to ultimately cut neda!!!

jon could have been more honest in his DR’s and he definitely could have been more honest when answering his jury questions. i felt like he was dancing around questions (when answering about his strategy to be popular) or straight up lying (he thinks he’s “solely” responsible for arlie and adel?? yeah right). i think he deserves the win, i mean, he literally won his way to the end, but i think he would have won against neda anyway in final 2, so i wish he would have either brought her to final 2 (which she completely deserves), or been more honest in DR about sabrina so that canada could really follow his game.

sunnydee

Jon disappointed me big time in his decision, however at the same time i have to fault Neda for not winning a comp she should have been able to win, 7 questions. it required memory and not physical, and it was her game to win in order to secure her seat. I also think he should have been more secure in his ability to win. A lot of people faulted neda for being ‘greedy’ because she needed the money, and wanted to win, even tho we didn’t know how badly she really did need the money until the end. I felt like Jon, as her selfproclaimed best friend, stole 20,000 from her that she badly needed. I found that petty and mean, and unnecessary.

It would have been a special game ending to see them both up there. I think now others are right to say the majority of the jury would have voted for him regardless of appreciating neda’s game, he shouldn’t have had a worry, and even if he did, what would be wrong with 2nd place, against a friend you know needs that $$ more than you do?

I think at the end of the day winning, for this long time athlete, was more important than anything else, just for the sake of winning, for someone who wasn’t a big fan of BB going in, i kind of have a problem with that. and of course if he says later he will invest in her biz with a 20,000 investment, then i won’t have a problem with that lol

Name

According to the jury members when interviewed this morning at Global’s morning show, most of them including would have given it to Neda. Boy, the look of her face was very upset. As they say, Karma’s a bitch. Jon just gave her the taste of her own medicine. After all, she maybe the brains but Jon was the better competitor by winning final HOH and outmaneuvered Neda by voting her out.

beaugard

Yes, I thought the same thing. While it is easy to overlook the first challenge, the physical challenge Neda has never been good at, so it’s understandable she lost there, but the mental challenge, that is supposed to be her forte, it was expected of her to win that and Jon, who I didn’t even think would come close to Neda in that kind of challenge, pulled out the win- in fact, when Jon has really needed something, like the veto of the week before, he pulled through and did it

WiggedOut

Neda pretended to be offended when Adel suggested she needs to win b/c of the struggles their families faced to get to Canada. She was adamant she wanted to win on merit for her strategy. Yet, she did plant the seed in everyone’s mind (especially close to end of the game) that she really, really needed the money 😉

If she truly wanted to win on merit, we wouldn’t have heard about her financial struggles until after the show. Also, not sure why she’s worse off than most of us who have been paying off student loans for decades at prime +1 interest!!! Did I miss something ?

WiggedOut

Sorry but I think that:

– Jon WAS loyal to Neda until he started getting suspicious about her loyalties when Adel was on the block and eventually voted out.
– Jon tried to change Neda’s mind about voting him out but she was adamant no
– Neda told Adel she was voting him out without discussing it with Jon
– She kicked Jon out of the room when she ws working Sabrina and Heather for jury votes

While Neda was open in diary room and with Heather and Sabs about not taking jon, I think it was SMARTER and more strategic of Jon to hold his cards close and not disclose he MAY also vote her out at such a critical juncture in the game. Neda was the brains but no way she could have made it this far if Jon didn’t execute flawlessly and win all the comps he did.

The right person won in my opinion!!!! YAY!

Note: Looks like East coast is dominating BBCAN lol

Annette

I don’t fault Jon for not talking about taking out Neda in his DR sessions. It was no secret that Canada was a part of the Big Brother game so being mindful of that is part of playing the game. You could play the loudmouth or the villain and that will get you attention but it won’t help when the audience gets to pick the nominations or their favorite player. Being likable was smart. Good for Jon! He deserved the win.

Name

He said he’d watched a few seasons, so I think “nothing” is a stretch.

Roz

NOOOOOOO Neda :'( She played such a flawless game up until the very end…..devastated

Name

i honestly don’t think she deserved to win over Jon anyways, yes she played a strong game however she wouldn’t have been able to play the game she did WITHOUT Jon as her ally.

Ivory.

You could say the exact same about Jon though

The truth is they equally deserved to win

d

please, jon wouldn’t have won without neda. he even admitting that he knew nothing about big brother and had to learn watching other people’s strategies, aka NEDA’s strategy! seriously, she taught him how to play this game and warned him when ppl were targeting him earlier in the game when he had NO IDEA (ex: kenny). him cutting neda final 3 is like a young jedi killing his master… it was a good move, he won his way to the end. but he knows he couldn’t have done it without neda’s knowledge.

Sar

Are you kidding! Neda may have played a flawless game but only up until the last couple weeks! I was rooting for Jon all the way but as undeserving as Sabrina was of the 20 grand I’m so much happier it was her over Neda!! Neda’s game was stragic but she NEVER would’ve done anything or got so far without Jon!!! As far as I’m concerned tonight’s finale said a lot about Neda’s character- for her to say she played Jons game for him is absolutely RIDICULOUS. She was such a bitter bitch on the stage, I’m surprised Jon got her vote at all! She has been talking about blindsiding Jon for weeks and it never even crossed his mind until NOW, so much so that even SHE was surprised. She lied right to his face and I believe he knew that in the last couple weeks. SUPER happy with the results!!!!!! Way to go Jon!!!! NL is proud of you:)

Ivory.

Jon wouldn’t have gotten nearly as far as he did without her though.

Jon never came up with any moves until evicting Neda.

I repeat, they deserved it equally.

Name

Keep in mind, she was fresh out of the game. There’s no doubt you’re going to be a hint bitter. Especially if the one reason you’re out is because of that ally of yours. Not to mention, you lose sanity being there for 10 weeks.

Toes

I’ve been rooting for Neda but I was perfectly okay with Jon winning right up until he answered Neda’s question. He should have been honest and said what he’s said before, that he had played the majority of his game with her, but instead he took responsibility for almost all of her game play. It was only in that moment when I thought something I NEVER thought I would wish for, for Sabrina to win.

WiggedOut

I think he was honest – he said that he didn’t agree to any of her decisions unless he felt it was good for his game.

Name

Problem is–that wasn’t Neda’s question.

Sass

Dawg and Simon, thank you for another great season. You guys are the best 🙂

Honestly I’d rather Jon or Sabrina win. I just can’t get behind Neda. I’ve been watching Big Brother since (not since I was 9 like all the houseguests) season 4 and I understand one must lie and back stab to get to the end but Jon and Heather have been loyal and genuine to Neda who had no qualms about seeing either of them go.

Sambooooooooooodee

I called it weeks ago that Sabrina would undeservingly win 20K. As much as this is Neda’s fault for evicting Adel, I do kinda feel sorry for her. But she would have done the same thing if she won the final HOH.

Michael

She was the one that dragged Sabrina this far. It’s poetic justice the way it worked out.

Name

But so did Jon, so how is that poetic justice?

Backpedal Barack Erasing the Red Line

I agree. She was carried.

Correct

You’re right, Sabrina undeservedly won 20k, she deserved the 100k. Jon was nothing compared to Neda and Sabrina.

Guest

Did you watch the same show as the rest of us? Sabs more deserving to win it all than Jon??!!

Renea

Neda played a great game for a minute but lost because in the end she was way too focused on getting Heather out vs getting rid of Sabrina, and she was foolish to think Jon would take her to the end.

WeHo

I hope these rumors are true. Wouldn’t be able to stand seeing Neda even get the second place prize. Go JON!

another name

ok… I was actually impressed by Sabrina in round one of the competition, no really, as far as unexpected… that was noteworthy. nothing about neda or Sabrina impressed me in round two…. for the timeline and trivia experts that was brutal.

moon3k

Wow…Jon is my hero!

Kellym

You read my mind! I am impressed. I didn’t think he would of gotten rid of Neda. Best game move, as well as winning that POV that got him to the final 3. Good game!

Chloe

Aww, Neda is one of the most deserving players in a long time. Now I hope Sabs beats Jon, but I don’t see it happening.

Michael

Oh man, Neda just got BAMBOOZLED!!!!!

Name

Gloat much Michael?

BB_Snore

I lost interest after the first few weeks and just tuned in to see what was going on. Well, Jon ditched Neda and he and Sabrina are the final 2.

Name

Jon’s a freakin little Pu$$y!
At least I don’t have to watch him spread his yeast infection around
and he’s going to be a teacher?

Guest

I don’t feel sorry for Neda because if she had won she was going to evict Jon, so it just happened that he at the end was the better player and was able to win the final HOH.

Congrats Jon on the (assuming)big win, you certainly deserve it and kudos to Sabs, who has grown on me, for winning 20 grand. Now let’s see what the Jury members do. IF SABS wins over Jon I might actually throw up!

Nice Guys Finish First

Can’t stop replaying that moment! You go Jon.

dixie

Having trouble swallowing that Sabrina will win anything since she got carried to the end but it is what it is. Sucks to be Neda at this point but considering she was going to do the same thing she shouldn’t be surprised. Will she vote for Jon or Sabrina? hmmm

Umm

You do know that Neda played Jon’s game for him, right? He doesn’t deserve anything by just winning a couple challenges against the worst competitors in the house. It’s a shame that every BB jury thinks the same way you do. This season was the Sabrina show, if you enjoyed it, it’s because she was there.

Nice Guys Finish First

Hahahaha guess Goofy troopy Jon wasn’t the big dumb jock you thought he was NeDUH

Tyla

I agree. I’m sure he could justify all those moves if he wanted by pointing out that they were working together so doing what benefitted her also benefitted him. It was all game and she knows it. Being bitter just shows her true colours as far as I’m concerned.

Sass

Neda is the definition of hypocrite.

Michael

They were working together. Neda didn’t do a damn thing without Jon either. He could say the exact same thing to her.

moon3k

Yes…I agree with you and Simon. I don’t buy this “Neda was blindsided so she deserves to be bitter” crap. She is just pissed at herself for thinking she had Jon completely conned. And, of course, she would think that Jon had no game and just played hers. (He should have answered her question by saying: “Neda, if I was playing your game…you would be sitting here next to me…”) Jon made some moves on his own. He saw through Kenny when he really needed to…most importantly…he saw through Sarah. He knew she could not be trusted and was the one who talked Neda out of saving her, when Neda brought the idea up to him. I think that was a very important game move.

Also, just because Jon decided to go along with some of her suggestions…doesn’t mean he played her game. The decisions helped them both and HE was the one willing to get blood on his hands and do the dirty work. I wonder if Neda would have blindsided Arlie if she had been HOH that week? He also won when he needed to win and got himself to the end. In fact, I think his wins helped them more than anything Neda did. And his decision to cut her loose when he needed to only proves that he played HIS game…not Neda’s…and he won because of it. I’m not surprised at all that she sat there with a face like a slapped ass for the rest of the night…of course, if it had been the other was around, she would have expected Jon to be happy for her and not have any hard feelings…

She was outsmarted and outplayed…simple as that.

WiggedOut

I was worried that Neda was so bitter she would throw her vote to Sabrina, but I think she did the right thing by voting Jon to win.

I really thought she was much too cold and detached the whole game, but her vote for Jon to win totally softened my views of her.

Name

Simon, I am surprised at your comment. The best player in the game just lost the prize. Give her some room to assert what is rightfully hers…the game.

Michael

IMO there’s 3 criteria to rate game play:

1. Strategy
2. Social game
3. Competitions

Jon has her beat in 2/3 categories and is thus the better game player, which is why he won BBC2.

Name

Uh he would have had a much harder time winning against some other competitors, Kenny, Arlie. Oh. Wait…Neda got them out.

Michael

The Sloppy Seconds got Kenny out together. Neda was trying to throw that HOH and failed.

That was a blindside competition, in which the gremlins started off against each other. After that, it was 7 against 2!! Neda doesn’t deserve any more credit than anyone else for getting Kenny out. BB had the biggest hand in that by starting the gremlins against each other in that comp.

Name

obviously not, they were not “strong” enough to stay in the game

Carlos

This is actually arguable, Jon just wins on the competition side, which is the most important in the latter part. After watching the backyard interviews allison, arlie and even adel will vote for neda in the end. These are Jon’s supposed to be expected votes due to his strong “social” game. That makes Jon as a better social gamer questionable. Jon still ups Neda (if basing it on this season because he did cut her in the end) and deserves the win but objectively I think Neda is still the better player.

Michael

They said they would have voted for Neda if Jon took her to F2, because it would have been a stupid final move for Jon. That’s a different story.

And there’s more to having a social game than just jury votes. Neda wasn’t close to Arlie or Allison in slightest bit. Only Adel, and that’s because they went far. Jon had much more ties to people in the house. If the tables turned a different way, he would have been less likely to be left out in the cold because he had formed so many relationships; whereas Neda only formed a few in her entire time playing.

For example, Jon had the choice of staying with Neda, or he could have went with Arlie and Adel. Neda was pretty much all in with Jon and didn’t have any other options.

And like Allison said; Jon had deals with everyone, and they all believed him, even though they knew they shouldn’t. That statement by her shows why his social game was so strong.

Dyl

In her defence I don’t think she saw it coming and after 70+ days working hard at something and coming so close to it all tumbling down would be heartbreaking – especially in the moment. If she had a day or two she wouldn’t have been as bitter, but Jon would’ve been the same way had Neda won and evicted him.

Name

You have to realize though that it is tough to be all happy and jolly as she was evicted ten minutes after being promised to be taken from the very beginning. Especially with her grumpy and dark personality, not to mention being a superfan and financial situation, it is heartbreaking on her part. She did understand that everything’s a game (proven by her vote for him) but at a point where your dream and a hundred grand slipped on your fingers, she really handled it well (definitely better than how peter did who had days before to think in the jury house).

LizWT

I agree! I don’t think Neda was bitter about Jon evicting her … As she said, she was planning to do the same thing herself. I think she was upset, however, that in his closing speech he claimed most of the strategic moves (hers’) as his own and didn’t credit her involvement.

Well

If she was bitter, she wouldn’t have voted for him.

Don’t you run this site? You should be fully aware that Neda played the game for Jon.

Kiren

Clearly she was bitter but she knew a vote for an undeserving player like Sabrina would cement to Big Brother fans for years to come that she is a typical bitter (hypocritical) jury member. Notice how she got that last jab in as she was voting? She tried very hard to taint Jon’s win every chance she got.

Name

Or she voted for him because she has some integrity.

Doug

I’d say Jon played Neda’s game for her with his competition wins and social game.

Did she influence some of his eviction votes? Definitely. Did she control Jon? Nope, she was evicted by him when he needed to do it to guarantee himself a game win. As other posters have noted here “strategy” is only one aspect of the Big Brother game, and although Neda’s strategic game was very good it wasn’t great… otherwise she wouldn’t be sitting in Jury. Her ability to win competitions was inferior to Jon’s, and her social game was average at best with all the houseguests aside from Jon.

It’s easy (and probably true) to say “Jon wouldn’t have won without Neda”, but it’s just as easy (and probably true) to say that Neda wasn’t a good enough all-around player to win on her own.

Name

Just playing one on BB to further his game. Heh heh.

Jessie

I think everyone except Rachelle voted for Jon. Unless they were trying to throw people off, they pretty much telegraphed their votes.

Ella

JON deserves it yes, but SABRINA does not!! Leaves a bitter taste in my mouth that she just got handed $20 grand

Jessie

Yes it is annoying but the Quebec government will take a chuck of it 🙂

Karen

Yay Jawn. Hard for him to evict Neda but he did what he had to do to win. I didn’t think he had it in him so for that alone, he deserves to win.

Name

love NEDA, so saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaadddddd—- JON did not have any games without her :(((((

beaugard

I’m surprised Jon cut Neda, I thought he would take her just because I think he would still win against her- she choked at the physical competition and Jon beat her in the question competition, which she should have won, so he deserves to win. People always talked about bringing Sabrina to end to be in the final 2 with them, but I never thought someone would do it! She does not deserve to win at all and everyone knows that. I guess Jon did the right thing.

Name

Jon made the right move for his game in cutting Neda. He absolutely did not have the backing of the majority of the jury if in F2 with Neda. Arlie greeted Neda with ‘No, you had my vote’.

Had Neda been in F2 with Jon, I strongly believe the vote would be Neda 5-2.

Kudo’s to Jon for realizing he did not have first place with Neda beside him.

Name

Ah Neda, “Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practise to deceive”! You should have kept Adel or Heather and send Sabrina home when you had the chance, but greed got the better of you.

Carlos

Neda’s first (can be contested) mistake was keeping Sabrina. Had she kept Adel I believe he will take her over him (that’s when he saw the cracks and lies of Neda) but as the situation and challenges are unpredictable she may have made the right move at the time because she won’t even have a chance at winning a part of the final HOH.

Her undoubtedly second mistake was losing the final HOH, I can’t believe she choked on that Q&A. Neda being cut by Jon reminded me of how Janelle lose the final HOH. I can’t wait for BB Allstars and see how Neda changes her game up (Neda strong play at least deserves that chance).

Carlos

It was a great win for Jon but now I wonder if the people that has been flanking and hating on Neda as “manipulative and evil” will finally understand how they are just playing the game.

Overall this is actually one of the better season of Big Brother, both in US and even UK. I hope the next season of US will be almost the same as this one. 🙂

Michael

I think the way she acted after her game was over illustrates why a lot of people didn’t like her. It honestly didn’t have anything to do with her game play (at least not for me).

I will admit though, I debated with people who said that Arlie would respect Neda and wouldn’t be bitter. They were right and I was completely wrong about that. Arlie’s a classy guy. Did you see those ice daggers he was shooting at Jon though, through his stare? I didn’t expect that at all.

Carlos

Neda is a polarizing character, but she is far from being malicious. From what I’ve watched she’s a strong, feisty, independent woman and not everyone likes that. In all honesty Jon had said more vile things than her but his bubbly and goofy personality radiates more and covers that fact.

Had Jon taken Neda, Neda will win the game with votes from Arlie, Heather, Rachelle, Sabrina (she said she would vote for someone who will not vote her out) and probably Allison. I hate that there is no reunion show right after the finale because that’s where everything is confirmed.

Michael

Where you see strong, feisty and independent; I see bitter, conceited and rude. And I don’t like those traits in a man or a woman.

Jillian was strong, feisty and independent and I thought she was great. I’m a big fan of Jillian’s, so ease up a bit on the sexism insinuations.

Kiren

Some people just don’t like strong feisty and independent women? No. Don’t try to turn this into something it’s not, Janelle was the kind of person that encapsulates a strong feisty and independent woman and we ADORE her, she is a pillar of Big Brother. Neda is rude, spiteful and just plain annoying. That is the crux of why many can’t support her.

Name

Just because you feel strongly about players (pro or con) doesn’t make you right. We all have players we like more than others.

Dyl

Literally Jon evicted Neda and I turned the TV off. So pissed and so bored now. Ruined the season for me, I compare Neda to Janelle in the way that she was robbed of her deserved win. :/

Michael

I thought it was awesome. Not just because he did to her what she was gonna do to him, but he also won the last part of the HOH by beating her at her own game. Those question games were the only comps she was good at, and he kicked her ass at it. That illustrated how Neda’s competition game was lacking, and how Jon was the more well-rounded player.

If she couldn’t win the final HOH by winning her own game, then she didn’t deserve the win.

Name

Jon was granted to many “Can you repeat the question?” chances.

Michael

True, but that doesn’t give an advantage one way or the other. If anything it’s an advantage to the other person; considering Jon has to listen again while Neda can think.

Also, Neda asked the questions to be repeated also.

But yeah, BB should have been prepared for that, like ten seconds to answer and Arissa will only repeat the question once.

WiggedOut

Arisa saying “For you Jon, I’ll repeat the question”, sounded a tad bit like she favored him over Neda. Luckily it did not affect the outcome either way.

Well...

Neda got to hear the repeat as well.

Dyl

His answer to her question was also TERRIBLE. And probably just cause he literally couldn’t answer it. Jon says he NEVER watched the show? Makes sense. Seeing as Neda came up with every strategic move they both made “together” lol. Please Jon you were trying to kiss up to Kenny and Andrew until Neda slapped you out of it.
One might say well what did Neda do without Jon, and that would be getting Allison out, you know, after not being able to talk to anyone about it. And if you don’t count getting Jon to get rid of Arlie and Adel, it was clearly better for Neda’s game.
One good thing is Neda may come back for All Stars

Stan7777

Neda would be a disaster in all stars. Everyone has seen her game. Neda’s strategy never has a chance to materialize as no decent player would trust her period!!!. Her only game she could play is true floater. I don’t think that is in her BB DNA. From the 1st 2 seasons players with All Star transferable skills/game. Emmitt, clearly the best of the 2 seasons, Gary, Jillian and perhaps Andrew. Arlie, Jon, Sabby, Kenny and nut job Adel. Known quantities like Neda that have no social or comp game just aren’t going to get there in the end. Of the players I mentioned an Arlie, Kenny, Emmitt alliance would do big thing with Sabby thrown in. Never would happen though. They need another 3 or 4 seasons before All Stars. A lot will change in peoples lives between now and then.

Funny how some of the people who said Neda was the best BB Can player ever said Emmitt wasn’t in part because he never made final 2 his season. Ah NEDA didn’t make final 2 her season either folks!! Emmitt’s game is/was so much better than Neda’s it’s not even close. A lay about with no social game versus Emmitt who played comps, great social and made exactly 1 strategic error. That cost him 20K minimum and likely 100K. He got a terrific consolation prize(Jillian) IMHO. 🙂 The differences between winning and losing can be as simple as 1 bad decision, comp ect. Neda best ever? LMFAO

:P

emmit or however u spell his name, was a jack ass and Jillian is no prize besides that she came with all the money. i would absolutely hate to have to see either of them on the show again. oh and emit made lots of bad decisions like cheating almost every comp.

Name

No, you thought it was awesome because you despise Neda. You’ve said so in every thread. Don’t pretend that your glee is strictly about game play.

Guest

Click thumbs up for yes, thumbs down for no. Will Jon and Neda stay ‘friends’ once the novelty of BBC dies down?

Very freaky how much Jon’s gf looks like Neda..

Pancakes25

I’m so happy Jon won!!! Everything went swell, except for Sabrina winning 20 grand! Neda also played a great game, but I wish she would have played a part of her game without her big Jon shield.

Name

And I wish Jon played more of the game without his brain shield.

Name

LOL at brain shield. So true.

WiggedOut

I totally noticed the striking resemblance between Neda and Jon’s g/f!! I always questioned how touchy feelly they were and surprised that his g/f was okay with it?

Name

I don’t think she looks like Neda. I actually think she does look like Farrah Abraham, as Neda said.

Dana

Did anyone else see Jon bleeding all over Arisa’s arm?

She really should get tested.

i looked at the footage at that point
and it looked like someone had
scratched her as she went into
the crowd on the stage at the end.
she might have been bled on, too.

Name

Good for Jon. Funny how he said he wouldn’t vote for anyone who brought Sabs to final 2 and that’s exactly what he did.

Kiren

All the Sloppy Seconds agreed on that, we all knew it meant nothing. It was either in the heat of the moment for them to say that or strategy or both.

if you want to win BB .. start playing HALFWAY when the big threats are out …and hope for a miraculous twist… both Jon and Neda got lucky.. kudos for them but let’s be real Canada’s HOH helped them tremendously

Name

Big Brother is about making moves that get you closer to the prize. For the final HOH the last game move (excluding Jury speech) is who do you bring to F2.

Jon you made your only independent decision of the season and it won you 1st place.

Congratulations.

Did anyone notice Jon had a cut on his finger and bled all over arissa’s shirt and arm??? Lol and then she spread it on Sabrina’s dress and hair!!!!

Michael

No doubt his heart was pumping like crazy, which would have made him bleed so much more.

Name

HIs knuckles were cut…probably punched a wall or door during his exit. A bit enthused.

Name

How disappointing.. Jon didn’t do anything all season. Sabrina was surprisingly awesome in the first part of the HoH, I really wish she won part 1 so Neda wins part 2 and 3…. and the game. Neda deserved it so much more than the other two, and Sabrina did a lot more than Jon!

AnnaBella

Yeah Big Jon! I’m so happy right now. He made the move of all moves. So happy he got rid of Neda. Best move ever. I didn’t think he’d do it but so pleased he did. I’m hooked on BB and love this site!!!!

letsshakeupthehouse

YAY!!! I was so glad Jon won and that he cut Neda!! If it was the opposite, she would’ve done the same exact thing to him. She deserves what she got!! Nothing.

LizWT

Everyone is patting Jon on his back congratulating him regarding his strategic move by cutting Neda. I have a very strong feeling that if it was the other way around, and Neda had cut Jon that everyone would have been in an uproar …. calling her a cold hearted *itch etched. Etc.

WiggedOut

We would NOT have been so happy with Jon for cutting Neda IF we |Neda didn’t confirm over and over again that she was NOT taking him to the finals.

Name

Yep, they would have HATED her for it. And they would have gone on believing that sweet ole Jon would never have done the same thing to Neda–no, because he’s too loyal. LOL.

WiggedOut

I think most people wanted to see Neda and Jon in final two, but when she started plotting against him, the tide turned. Something about Neda always rubbed me the wrong way, but I totally respect her game play – intelligence.

Name

Was it her vagina? If a guy played the way Neda did, he would be loved by Canada and not be receiving all this hate.

Watcher

Well I was wrong in my prediction. That sucks …. I was rooting for the best player … Neda

Name

Big brother Canada rocks! Love the incredible attitude of all the players! Proud to be Canadian!

TTOTambz

Well, here’s my thoughts following tonight’s final.

Congrats to Jon for the win.

Wonder how many Jon fans feel now given many trashed Neda for the fact she was going to cut him at F2 and said he NEVER would.They were BOTH playing a game and he did exactly what she would have so please cut her some slack.

I thought Jon was a deserving winner and the only thing I think he did poorly was his answer to Neda’s question. He should have said: my best decision made without you was to align with you given how much you know about the game AND it was MY choice to take out Heather. If you noticed it was the one and only time the audience didn’t cheer his response. It was NOT a good answer. The least he could have done is thank her for working with him and pointed out she would have done the same thing.

Sad part for me is she may arguably be the best female BB player ever but she messed up when it mattered most and Jon won when it did so he deserved the win.

The other thing that was interesting was Arlie said Neda HAD his vote regardless of who she sat beside which leads me to believe Jon made the right decision b/c I do think Sabs, Ro, Arlie and Heather would have voted for her based on what was said while Adel and Canada would have gone to Jon. I’m still not sure if Ally would have given her vote to Jon or Neda if they were F2 but obviously it’s a moot point.

The cheer that went up in the audience when Neda won round 2 showed how much they were hoping for a Jon/Neda F2 and the gasp when Jon evicted Neda was really loud. Also I was surprised to see how many US BB players were in the audience: I saw my fav from last season Jon with my 2 least favs: Amanda and Andy and it’s likely Dan was there too. (side note: you could tell from his jury segment he really appreciated Neda’s game by the questions he asked).

After a great season I’m looking forward to seeing how many people will feel about Sabrina once they learn many of the personal (unnecessary) things she said about them, specifically Jon and Neda.

It was a great season and congrats to all the Big Jon fans. I’m sad my favorite got no money but at least she will get lots of kudos from previous players which I think she’ll appreciate. Also, now that Jon (who was considered so loyal) cut her maybe some people will cut her some slack.

Great season, enjoyed all the interaction.

🙂

And now the withdrawal kicks in.

Michael

You were certainly right about Arlie. I thought for sure he’d be bitter towards Neda. Turns out he was a bit bitter, but more so towards Jon. I didn’t expect that at all.

I was right about Allison though. She was REALLY bitter towards Neda.

Name

Michael, acknowledging someones game play does not make you bitter. Arlie respects Neda and her game. And truthfully, it was beyond evident that Jon had a poor answer to Arlie’s question, which should have been an easy one to respond to.

I don’t see that Arlie would be bitter to any of the F3.
As Neda was sitting in jury, Arlie voted for the next best player.

Don’t sweat it. Your boy won the money.

Michael

Arlie was clearly bitter towards Jon; evidenced by him in jury house saying how much he hopes Jon was the next to get evicted. And then after Jon answered his question, Arlie shot him one of the craziest glares of the season.

I think he’s happy that Jon won, but is also clearly struggling with some bitterness of being evicted by him.

Name

TTOTambz, I enjoyed reading your analyses and viewpoints throughout the season of BBCan2. Take care.

TTOTambz

Thanks so much. I try to stay fair even though we all have our favorites.

I’ll be back here on this fabulous site for BB US 16 (as well as on my twitter/same name). Thanks to Dawg for the fabulous site, making my donation now.

And for any of NBA lovers out there you can also follow me on twitter or google my name. Hey I’m a reality and NBA junkie what can I say. At least Jon winning isn’t as bitter a pill to swallow as Brooklyn beating my Raptors.

It’s literally my birthday so although I didn’t get a Neda win I did have satisfaction in the fact a worthy player won. Once again congrats to Michael et el who had Jon as their fav!

Have a great night all and see you back here at the start of BB US 16. 🙂

Michael

Happy Birthday TTOTambz!

It was nice talking to you. We’ll pick these chats back up during BB16. Maybe we’ll both be rooting for the same person next time. 🙂

Name

Happy Birthday! I appreciated your comments to–in part because I also thought Neda got an undeserved bad rap. Was nice to see someone actually post thoughtful comments.

TTOTambz

I meant to say JUDD (my favorite last season) Freudian slip? lol

AND Ian is also in the TDot (love, love, love Ian). 🙂

Kiren

Regarding Jon evicting Neda and his fans thinking he would never do that to her…

Jon could tell in the last week or two that Neda was really playing for herself alone (she was campaigning for votes while simultaneously undercutting Jon, sending Adel home when Jon explicitly said he wanted him to stay). He saw that she was lining her ducks up in a row and that meant if she could undercut him the way she was doing, what kind of loyalty did she really have to him? The real answer? None. What he knew? She’s sketchy to say the least. No one could possibly blame him for voting Neda put because she said it loud and proud in almost every episode in the final weeks. Jon didn’t seem to consider it until he started to lose faith in Neda and see the light.

Michael

Neda just wasn’t a good liar. That final scene in the kitchen, when Jon was saying ‘don’t screw me, we’re still going F2’, Neda was acting real sketchy. She couldn’t look him in the eye and had to turn away to the sink. There’s no way he didn’t know that she was lying. Meanwhile, not even the audience knew that Jon was lying in that scene.

Not the most admirable trait, but he was probably the best liar in the house. Even back when he was supposedly still trying to work with Kenny, the audience never really knew with the guy if he was being serious or not.

Name

Michael – Can I take it from your post that you’ve finally come to see that “sketchy” can mean “suspicious” instead of “creepy” in the context of BB2. 🙂

Name

Don’t assume Jon wouldn’t have cut her regardless.

dixie

Thanks Simon and dawg for all your hard work keeping this site going. BB wouldn’t be the same without you guys. See you in June.

Does anyone here know when the next season of BB Australia starts?

Name

I really didn’t have a favourite but the ones that said Neda played a better game, then she should of won the competitions to take out Jon.So in my opinion this left Jon with the power.Doesn’t matter how strategic she was she lost the power of the game by losing the challenges.You can’t get nowhere without winning those, so to me that makes Jon the better player.

Laurie

I liked Neda throughout this whole season but I rally feel that she was classless when she was voted out. I think that is a sign of her true character. I a, glad Jon won!

Name

Did you not expect her to not be bitter for atleast a little while?! SHE VOTED FOR HIM TO WIN , if that doesn’t show class i don’t know what does

Name

She gave him her vote, what else did you want? Everyone was complaining about how Jon would never cut Neda but he did and you people are still attacking her. Get real!

Name

I appreciated her spunk.

Marie

I really think the turning point for Jon was after he got the 24 hours in solitary confinment. He realized that Adel was better for his game and when he pitched it to Neda she was against it and they had the discussion about who’s game it was better for. Than when she went ahead and told Adel that he was being evicted (following Emmittee’s advice) without consulting with Jon who guessed it was for jury votes. I think that’s when he realized she was playing what was best for her game and not their game. I hate that they say she was the best ………. she wouldn’t have been able to do what she did without Jon’s wins. Even when she tried hard at winning the comps in the end she couldn’t do it.

TTOTambz

Jon did an interview last night and said he literally decided only once they were final 3 because he knew Sabrina would be easier to beat. It’s online

Kellym

I was just curious if any of the footage from the finale will be on here? Simon, Dawg?

AntonyG

Really liked Jon early on. Then I started to hate him. But when he evicted Neda he proved that he wasn’t under her spell. So ultimately you have to congratulate him.

isa

Despite Jon being a fun guy and having a good social game, he really didn’t deserve to win the game.
Yes he was a nice guy but the only independent decision he made was evicting Neda. Neda was the one who persuade him to vote out Arlie, it wasn’t Jon’s move at all.
Plus he said that evicting Heather was a good move? Um, between those two it was a no-brainer and said you had no choice you just took the easy way out in keeping Neda that week.
Let’s just admit it. If Sabrina left her personality aside in the house and we just saw her gameplay, she should’ve been the winner hands down. She was nominated 6 times, won the most important HoH to guarantee herself in the final 3 and even when her alliance came crumbling down, she had a way with words and was able to make it that far.
I’m just happy we had a much better cast than the BB15 atrocity. I still can’t stomach the fact that Andy won..

Michael

I thought it was hilarious how Neda tried to get Jon to admit that they were all her moves, and then he looks her in the eye and says they were all his moves. She was speaking purely from ego, and he gave her zero validation. IMO it was the perfect way for him to counter that.

Name

No. It indicated how little he knew what was really going on throughout the game.

Michael

Jon’s not an idiot. He knew that Neda pushed him to make those moves. How could he not?

But she was in full assault mode in her question, attacking his game and trying to force him to give her all the credit. He responded by giving her none of the credit. It was well played by him, and you could see that she was pissed by his response.

Name

His answer was terrible. He could have stood up for himself while also giving credit where it was due. If the shoe were on the other foot, and Neda had given that answer, you would have vilified her for it.

Michael

I doubt that, but maybe. The shoe would have never been on the other foot though. Jon would never have been so hostile and aggressive in his questions.

Name

And you know that… how?

I doubt Jon would have been a bucket of sunshine immediately after having been cut from the game by his supposed closest ally. Especially since he’s a competitive dude.

Michael

Either way, Neda was asking a bitter question that was designed to make him look bad and make her look good. Why should he have to concede to such a venomous tone? If she wanted respect for her game, she should have addressed him with less hostility, and shown him respect in kind. It was a “F*** off” type of response from Jon, which was totally fair given the way that she was acting. Why should he show her respect, when she’s not showing him any?

Name

Jon wouldn’t have come up with a good question.

WiggedOut

Exactly – Neda’s ego needed a lot of validation. You can see that in her personality and when her sister told her not to become arrogant (or something along those lines).

I perosnally think Jon is a LOT smarter than he let on. I’ve known many guys like him who absorb everything around them like sponges but hide behind goofy, fun kid persona. I bet he knew Neda was leading him, but b/c they were in sync with decisions most of the time, it seemed like he was being led..

Name

I don’t think her ego needed validation at all – I think she was just pissed at losing–and let’s face it, the disappointment was fresh! Cut her some slack for crying out loud.

Huntress

1 HUNDO THOUSAND!!! Good Going Big Jon.

Holy hells bells when he evicted Neda. Come on, we all felt that one but knew it was the best move for him to make. I also love that she basically said “He got me first”. She was right to vote for him in the end.

Yes Sabrina’s game was good in the beginning but then it wasn’t, simple. Not against Neda and Jon, Heather maybe.

OMG could Arlie possibly get over himself and his sour grapes? I really thought he was going to screw Jon in the end just because….. Him being a “super fan” im glad to see he voted for the best gamer of the two imo.

Does Allison own any long pants? 😛

Congrats Jon, you earned it.

Name

Allison’s all about “the baayz”…and Andrew was there. 😉

ELA

Thanks once again Onlinebigbrother for all that you do, so appreciated. Let’s do It again with Big Brother USA, 2014.

ELA

Love you Sabrina Abbate !

Name

im glad jon evicted neda in the end…. this was the only way he would have won the game….. jon knew that neda was always working on jury votes when the sloppy got arlie out…. neda was always friendly with the gremlins…. neda was going to evict jon if she won the final hoh and jon knew that …… i think neda not wanting to keep adel instead of sabrina was what made jon think … i believe it was at this point jon realized neda was never going to take him to the end….

Huntress

I agree, I think just like she saw it in his eyes, he saw it in hers.

Dawn

Neda played a very good game…but she should not have kept Sabrina….She would have cut Jon had she had the last HOH.. She had a right to feel hurt at the end and had no time to come to terms with the loss of her dreams. Good luck Neda in the future !! Jon was wanting to go to the end with you over Sabrina , but came to feel ( after you axed Adel ) you would not take him !! I feel you played the best game.

BBAlias

Jon played a good game as well and was deserving of the win especially since he evicted Neda. Sad Neda didn’t win but glad Sabrina didn’t. Neda’s biggest mistake was getting rid of Adele if she would have kept him she probably would have won or at least made it to F2. Thanks again Simon and Dawg. See you for BB16!

Dawn

Very Happy Jon Won…..Sabrina in the money …not at all !! She was vicious with lies that were not for game that hurt many it the house she has a lot of growing up to do and should start with …sorry to Janelle. Do not think any of the crude was game ,,,but a mean child who always gets her way ! She will never change life is all about her and always will be !! Sad to watch her hate of others totally uncalled for …!!!

Heatherhater

I’m just glad that b**** Heather didin’t win hope she rots in hell stupid ***
