Wild conspiracy theory: Throk has been working for the Grimborns this whole time.
I sat bolt upright a few nights ago and wrote this. Stay with me, because I think I’m onto something here!
Defenders of the Wing
The Grimborns are able to sneak onto the island and steal the Eruptodon with no one seeing them carrying a huge-ass dragon to their ship. There's no way that they did that without some kind of inside help. Throk is following Mala around, but he is captain of the guard (or at least second-in-command to Mala). He would have been capable of incapacitating the guards, or ensuring those loyal to him were 'on guard' at the right time. "There should be guards here," says Mala when they discover the Great Protector is missing – we never find out where they went. Likely they just abandoned their post or went with the Grimborns, on Throk's command.
The face of a guilty man
Midnight Scrum
Throk is easily able to reach Hiccup once he's been taken by bounty hunters. The way he approaches Hiccup, menacingly and brandishing a knife, are NOT the actions of an ally! If Throk is working for the Grimborns, he's there to bring Hiccup straight to Viggo himself (perhaps Viggo didn't trust that any two-bit bounty hunter would be able to complete the job). The only reason this was foiled was because Krogan wasn't aware of Throk's loyalties, and stole Hiccup for himself.
Sure, Throk is totally on Hiccup's side here
Shell Shocked
Throk was assigned to guard Viggo on Defenders of the Wing Island.
When Viggo was taken off by Throk, his hands were manacled. But by the time of Ryker's attack, his hands have been freed. Why would Throk have freed his hands unless he was helping him?
Throk is told to keep Viggo locked down while the riders battle Ryker. But by the time they get back, Throk admits that he has slipped away. The only two explanations are that Throk is completely incompetent… or he deliberately released Viggo.
Ruffnut
All of his interactions where he's 'falling in love' with Ruffnut come across as insincere. Assuming Throk is still working for Viggo post-volcano, perhaps he has been told to get close to one of the dragon riders, in an effort to a) get more information about them, and/or b) separate someone who can be used as a hostage.
A man who is trying a bit too hard
In conclusion
I've always found Throk to be a bit boring, but he immediately becomes much more interesting if he's been a double agent this whole time! Perhaps he's the Defenders of the Wing equivalent of Johann – playing a long game to ingratiate himself into a community, waiting for the perfect moment to betray them for his own gain.
This is just a silly little idea! I doubt the writers intended any of his actions this way. But it's fun to think about!

There’s not much I can say about the discourse that hasn’t been said already - but how about this? Let people dislike what they dislike, if they’re respectful about it (which the majority are btw) there’s no reason for you to be disrespectful towards them about it, that goes for both regular bloggers and literal dreamworks staff members. Y’know them? the people who actually put time and effort into making the franchise that you love so dearly? Come the fuck on guys
