Rob has been saying a ton of things all season long that would simply prove to be ironic.

He says the best thing would be to get the girl and the million.

He says that Amber is his "in" and that he trusts her completely.

His brother Mike says, "Don't trust anyone."

Now, along the lines of irony, we have a little bit of history. There's always some statement given that should somehow foreshadow who wins in the end.

In S1, it was Rich's "write me the check" speech.
In S4, Vee said, "A black person will never win."
In S7, JFP said that there was no way Sandra would get the million. (Whoever wants to can go back to find the exact quote.)

I'm not sure exactly what the exact quote is for this season, but it seems to be more than just one quote. It seems to be this week after week of Rob gloating about himself and winning the million.

What always hit me about the foreshadowing quote was not so much that it told you who would win but rather that it was ironic.

Here's what I'm talking myself into:

With all of Rob's blathering self-absorbed speeches about how he's going to win the million and get the girl and how he trusts the girl, it becomes quite ironic for the girl to cut him loose to win.

Shii Ann identified that Amber is actually the string puller, and she makes him do the dirty work. Amber was also the one who made the real deal with Lex and Kathy, yet somehow when they voted for her in Lex's boot they both only voted for her by default when they really wanted to vote for Rob.

The pecking order in the tribe is definitely Tom, then Rupert, then Jenna. But if Amber wins immunity, she'll ditch Rob. Rob did all the dirty work, and she's just a coat-tailer. Jenna is the same, so that means that Amber had the better strategy because she coat-tailed and manipulated the right person. (Jenna only had Rupert because he built an island basement which cost Saboga their morale.)

The foreshadowing of Rob as the winner who was told to trust no one, and the fact that he trusts Amber implicitly, should tell us that he gets cut at 3.
