The MILKSHAKE thread...favorite flavor?

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.

    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 Melk has learnt over his career that AFL football can be a cruel game.

    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.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
