I know what was said on the show about it and that denys mallister who was one of the people to vote for lord commander is the commander of the shadowtower but other then that you never realy heard much about it.

Qhorin Halfhand was also stationed at the Shadowtower.

Forgot about him. Anyway Shadowtower is also "shadowy" in books too. As readers we never been there. Hell - people still arguing at what side of the Wall its located. IIRC Shadowtower also the only NW post that not located on the Wall directly. Its on the mountain.

NW men n wildlings will probably join regular Stark forces. Should scourge fail then Stark territory will double in size.

The Night's Watch's purpose is not only to guard a wall, but to protect the realms of Men. Now that the great enemy of mankind has breached the Wall, I believe that the Night's Watch has a purpose more than ever.

Also, Sam is not the Warden of the South. The title of Warden is given by the Crown. When Jon Arryn died, Jaime Lannister was made Warden of the East because Sweet Robin was too young to hold the title. Randyll Tarly was named Warden of the South by Cersei. He died with his only heir. Sam is still in the Night's Watch and is now in Winterfell (not a show of loyalty to the butt who is now warming the Iron Throne). Therefore, Cersei will chose another lord as Warden of the South. If she still holds it, of course.

S8 is the last season and it will be one episode shorter (although supposedly each episode will be even longer). We do know they have a spinoff planned but have no idea what it will focus on.

No no no.

NW guarding realms of men meant stopping anything getting south but now that EVERYTHING went south n wall is history they serve no logical purpose as an independent force but should swear new vows..serving a Lord Commander makes no sense.

Eddard Stark executed a NW deserter cuz south of the wall NW is not the law. NW can either join Jon, go home or stay at wall for no reason whatsoever.

All remaining NW are going to rush to Winterfell, most will probably join Jon. But probably choose Daenerys cuz she has dwagons, huge army n sheit

Sam is eldest son of the most powerful family in the south unless there is a stronger one in Dorne but Cersei hates them all so she n Daenerys would want Sam on their side. Sam is best candidate since he is fully convinced of scourge n would hold authority over southern forces so probably only he could make forces of the Reach march north n make the other lords in the reach do so too.
