The MILKSHAKE thread...favorite flavor?

Young Angus
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Just wanted to start a birthday thread in honor of such a big important reliable part of our club, the milkshake himself, Mr. Jake Melksham!  Go get yourself a milkshake today to celebrate this birthday.

Couple of things, first of all our team would just not be a shadow of what it is leading into finals this year without the Milkshake, and that isn't just being said because of what has happened but has been a genuine thought all season before and after he made it into the best 22 (I always thought he should be in there).  He is the x-factor and provides grit, reliability, an elite kick for goal (especially the bananas), and just such a positive professional attitude and vibe for the whole team and has really made our forward line look like a forward line.

So happy birthday Jake, despite this terrible news we are all super fans of what you've done for our club this year and we know we wouldn't be where we are without you on the field.  I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that I'd love nothing more than to see you recover well and get back on the field and kick some more bananas from the boundary!!  If anyone can do it, you can!!

Also what are people's favorite milkshake flavors?  Mine is vanilla malt...can't beat it!!!  Best are those big milkshakes they used to have at the pancake parlor, haven't been in there for years but damn they were good, even if they cost you about twenty bucks worth every cent.

Get better Milkshake, we hope the footy gods smile and we see you in the red and blue once again.

    More than the flavour I go for thick milkshakes. Don't like 'runny' milkshakes.

    Always chocolate and the milk must be icy cold.

    1.  Hints in the OP suggest that banana milkshakes is the correct answer.  (Yeah, I'm a smoothie).

    2.  Did you seriously pay $20 for a milkshake @Young Angus?  :blink:

    The Pancake Parlour is infamous for its stupid prices, and their milkshakes are no exception.  Their milkshake is called the "swiss mountain malt" and current online menu has it at $13.90...so not quite twenty bucks but close enough to make it a very silly price.  I think you're probably paying five or six bucks for that name alone haha don't get me wrong though, absolutely great milkshake, probably should be about half the price though which goes for just about their whole menu.

     

    EDIT: The only time we'd get one of these was at the 24 hour Pancake Parlour in Doncaster in the wee morning hours after a night out before heading home.

    Haven't had a good old fashioned cafe style milkshake in a while but it has to be chocolate.

    A lot of weird iced chocolates and what have you around these days. If anyone can recommend a good one in the Richmond/Abbotsford area I'll get on board.

    Any flavour (maybe passionfruit) but double malt and two eggs, icecream and still runny, not like these bloody "thickshakes" they have here in the States. 
    Happy birthday Jake!

    I’m sure his pride wouldn’t allow it.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
