The Traitors Wiki
Advertisement


Sam McGlone is an Original Traitor and the runner-up of The Traitors (Australia)/Season 2, along with Blake Willoughby and Camille Chicheportiche.

Giving himself the nickname "The Sheriff" and willing to do whatever it takes, Sam plays aggressive gameplay as a Traitor by betraying his fellow Traitor, Ash Pollard, with the help of Blake Willoughby after three episodes. His plan was to openly Murder or Banish Faithfuls that were onto him like Annabel Fidler and Luke Toki, while sparing Faithfuls that were loyal and believed him a Faithful like Liam Davern and Sarah Short until the very end. He managed to execute this plan while charming most of the other contestants, with Faithfuls only realising he was a Traitor as they were picked off one by one despite previous warnings.

However, the bond between him and Blake was long gone throughout the season, and even the decision to recruit Camille Chicheportiche as a Traitor was opposed by Blake, who nevertheless allowed it. This proved to be his undoing, as towards the end where they Murdered and Banished all of the Faithfuls, the remaining trio faced a Traitor's dilemma. Blake and Camille both clocked that Sam was going to Steal despite saying to them that he will Share the money, also choosing to Steal and causing no one to receive the AU$208,000 as a prize, and finishing the game as a Finalist along with Blake and Camille.

Profile[]

Retrieved from 10 play:

A marketing videographer for international brands, Sam travels the world. This makes him familiar with having to change his style based on who he’s working for, which he thinks will work in his favour in this game.

He says, “I work with so many different brands and businesses, so I have to change my character seven times a day from being a fitness person to selling garden equipment.”

Sam is a country boy from NSW who now lives on the Gold Coast. He spent over 40 days during the 2019 NSW bushfires as a volunteer fire fighter with his dad and brother, raising over $63,000 for his local wildlife centre.

But who wants to be the good guy in a game like The Traitors? Not Sam. He says, “I have a really good game face, I’m just gonna be nice and pleasant, but when it really comes down to the crunch, I know what I need to do.”[1]
