If Tone’s calling it a Valencia, my money’s on it being a Navel.
And yes, z a, the orange probably would’ve been a more popular choice. Perhaps slightly more mystifying, but some people would’ve been laughing with Tone, instead of most people just laughing at him.

And yes, klewso, while I was trying to think what possible motivation Captain Australia could have had for the Sir Phil decision, it occurred to me, that he may thought that if he got away with that one, then next year he could install Citizen Rupe as Australian of the Year.
And, Neutral, maybe the orange was just pointing out that it wasn’t a barnacle.
