It appears to me that Rast is being situated to contrast Snow. So when Snow returns to the Wall, it could be that Rast is the head of the Night's Watch because Mormont is dead
If Shae's purpose is to further the Tyrion story, she's deader than a doornail. It's just a matter of when
I have no idea how Talisa dies, but she's not important at all and if she died it would just fuel a plot
Theon is sort of a long shot, but he has no home and he's the victim of everything. The Greyjoys have a role in something, but how is not yet determined. It could be that he dies and they get really upset at his killers
Outside of the potential foreshadowing that Brienne fights against Stannis, she is highly expendable. She appeared out of nowhere and can die out of nowhere. The Boltons are taking her and Jaime, and she's not aligned with their desires at all
Also I would adore the Tyrell women turning on Sansa and telling Teh Joff that she called him a monster. Would teach her some valuable lessons to have her pampered ass in a dungeon for a while
Nothing to see here, folks. Just a little...
Neeways, I've still got Theon on the list but I don't think he's going to die unless it's the end of the season and his arc comes fully to a close. This may be foreshadowed by his realization that Ned is his real father, but I doubt it. I think he's going to stick around for some time, but his death could be used as a catalyst for something. His life can be used even better though, so I don't think he'll die, but could
Shae is still on the list, but I don't see her dying because I don't see Tyrion breaking bad on his family. As it is now, he might be seeking revenge against Cersei and possibly trying to kill her, but him going after Tywin for killing Shae would be something else entirely. Also, I think Jaime will eventually return to KL and Tyrion loves him
Talisa is still a terribly hard one to pick. I'd kinda like her to die because it would turn Robb bitter. She's a strange character because her only role is to be a prop for Robb's and Cat's development, but there still isn't any sensible way to predict her death yet.
Which brings me to Brienne. She appears to be used as a foil for Jaime's development, and all of her purposes are nearing a close. Her words on Stannis are becoming more irrelevant as the other plots develop, and looking over her arc, it becomes clear that her purpose from the beginning was to be a prop for Jaime. Combining that with her on-camera dominance and the fact that she appeared out of nowhere for a highly convenient purpose, she looks to not be long for this world. I could see her dying by way of saving Jaime. I don't see her living for long because that would mean she does something like accompany Jaime to KL and they do things together, but that would detract too much from Jaime's overall arc. She's not going back to Cat either, so she's pretty much a goner.
As for The Hound, he's obviously the safest pick for next death, but that's a stupid pick because he's incredible and the writers can suck a dick if they kill him. If he does die in the next ep, then why in the fuck didn't he just die in the Battle of Blackwater? Everything he has done since betraying Teh Joff points towards a future for him, and if that future is just to die at the hands of the Brotherhood, then it would have worked just fine for it to be a random
