There’s a bakery near me that claims to have the ‘Best Vanilla Slice in Melbourne’. I was in there one day getting lunch when a woman came in and in a surprisingly aggressive manner demanded to know how they could justify such a claim. The poor girl behind the counter calmly explained that they believe that they do have the best slice etc. Angry woman then said in a shitty tone “well give me one then”. Then in an admirable attempt to keep a straight face the reply came “sorry Madam, we have already sold out today. You’ll have to come back another day. Is there anything else we can help you with?”. Cue grumpy customer stomping out of shop. Me giving her a cheeky grin as she exited didn’t seem to help[emoji16]

Slightly controversially these are more your French Vanilla slice which may be an issue for some in the snot block community. There’s many other hills that I’m prepared to die on rather than this one.

French Lettuce?

Warrigal Road, Cheltenham?
Station St, Fairfield. But I’m guessing there’s probably a heap of shops making the same claim.
One of our competitors used to make the claim on their website that they had ‘the best piano workshop in the universe’. That claim was as accurate as saying that CCJ, Keenan Reynolds and David Calthorpe are the best 3 signings in the modern age.
 
you’d imagine it would be pick 2, maybe 14 or an upgraded 14. And our future first not a PP, which would most likely be a bottom 5/ top 5 next year.

Yeah no matter how you skin it, seems excessive. Have to agree with corn
 
You're not allowed to trade as a bakery if you don't claim to have the best vanilla slice in the country
Some of the best meat pie people dislike this

Those big hauls come when you have a borderline top 10 pick, like if Geelong wanted 1, they would need multiple first round picks. Going from 1 to 2 isn't the same kind of leap, you are getting the 2nd best player, not the 10th best.

That can't be a thing.


I confess that I did used to drink caramel milkshakes, and even lime spiders (and one time, coke in a glass with vanilla ice-cream as a dare).

Vanilla slices are pretty good but it's over 10 years since I had one (incidentally, from some bakery on the way to Echuca that claimed to be Australia's best but it was only OK).

But in retrospect, caramel milkshakes are an abomination as are blue heaven and strawberry.
You're completely right on caramel milkshakes. You should tell it to the bloke in the big chair.

I think you might be wrong. Isn't this exactly why Richmond opted to receive Tarrant in a trade rather than take him as a UFA?
I was reading this which had delisted free agents not getting compo. Which I assume it means the same going the other way?

Thank you Legend!

So another opinion piece

"The West Australian understands there is now a strong belief that the Eagles will keep the pick and draft Reid, unless the Kangaroos come with a Godfather offer of at least their first picks in this year’s draft, which appears unlikely."
When did Cawo start writing for the West Australian? And a Godfather offer? Does that mean people will start turning up dead?
 
Tom Morris said we'd be getting him as a UFA. He's hasn't been delisted, at least yet.


Ah ok, I might be getting confused. I thought a delisted free agent was a type of UFA not a separate thing.

Edit: I also thought he was a delisted free agent because he had been delisted in the past.

The owner of that bakery used to own the Flinders Bakery before moving and did in fact win one of those awards :tearsofjoy:

You need a knife and fork and a drop sheet to attack those Vanilla Slices, they are enormous.

My bad, i meant delisted free agents. You are right about unrestricted free agents, i don't think delisted free agents count. Again, I could be wrong. :p
