Highlight reel: Centre bounce, halfway through the last qtr - kneeing Brogan in the ribcage just under his armpit (near where a normal human would have a heart - something lacking in those wearing teal on Sunday).

I've had whale in Japan. Very dark meat, a little chewy. Strong flavour - not unlike liver in a way. Doubt that I could eat a whole one.
Only cost about Y400 for 6 slices. A few thin slices cooked in tempura, once enough though, I wouldn't have it again.
