A lot going on for the last show. We know there will be a lot of Kings Landing and post-battle Winterfell. Presumably Dany sets sail, but what of Tyrion? Other arcs:

Do you think Benjen can pass the wall? Or can he only get Bran to the wall and wave goodbye?

Will we see more of Arya? Or was here "I'm Arya Stark of Winterfell and I'm going home!" her season ender? I could see a few different options:
a.) no more Arya this year, or
b.) Arya on a ship (with Jaquen?) or
c.) Arya on the road, somehow miraculously being brought together with The Hound again since we need that subplot to end up some where as well or
d.) Simply Arya approaching Winterfell.

We've also got loose threads with Jaime, Frey's, Varys, Brienne, Samwell....others?

Yeah I was gonna say the author was definitely a weird kid. Sandlot FTW.

I remember telling myself that exactly same thing 1 year ago.

Half the time during the spring game I was concentrating so hard during the misdirection plays trying to figure out who had the ball that I never noticed who was in at quarterback at that moment. Hopefully, our opponents will have the same problem.

There is significantly more subterfuge going on in the books; the show barely scratched the surface of what is going on there, which is why most of the book-reading audience hated the way Dorne was handled. Non-book readers are probably just a bit confused as to what is even going on. The people of Dorne were indeed behind the Sand Snakes, and there is an ongoing plot of rebellion against the crown, and even Doran was part of it, albeit in a more diplomatic way, sending his son Quentin to propose marriage to Danaerys to unite the Martells and Targaryens (she refuses, but still). So when Danaerys arrives in Westeros, one would expect that the Dornish would back her, if for no other reason but they see that she has the ability to kill off the Lannisters, whom they hate. But then, with what's likely to happen next episode, that again may become totally superfluous...

And it will also be interesting to see if they continue to roll with the Jon Connington = Jorah Mormont deal, though I doubt the show is going to introduce the supposed Aegon this late in the game. That would be a whole other wrench in the works. Given how they didn't flesh out the Dorne story, I doubt they do that, either.

After the sand snake revolution I wasn't sure they were still one and the same. Considering they were only kingdom never conquered by dragons they have to have a future role right?

I wouldn't want one if I were him. It would be a very empty token knowing you did absolutely nothing to achieve it.

Honestly it would seem very strange to have to explain all the time why you have a championship ring for a team you didn't even play for.

Martell = Dorne.

My guess is there is not enough time in the show to do anything with Dorne, especially with the fan ridicule of how terribly they handled Dorne the last few seasons. Red Viper = awesome. The rest was absolute trash, especially given the richness of the source material. They probably should have never even done a Dorne storyline, but it was sort of unavoidable once Oberyn was introduced, and he's a central character.

Don't forget Dorne and White Walkers.
