The Pulse: Round One: Where the Macarena is encouraged | Thebigtip

Getting super pumped for the first game for Karmichael Hunt. Next on the AFL’s radar is Rabs Warren. Wouldn’t it be awesome to hear him, Stirlo and Fatty pontificate about the Gold Coast Suns. Turn it up!

Just one time, I would love to see a goal celebration which incorporates the Macarena. I am not asking too much.

Jack Riewoldt did a bit of a goose-step on Friday night, but that made him look like a North Korean soldier.

Perhaps the lambada would be called for if the goal was gifted by a team-mate. That’s the forbidden dance for those who have forgotten.

I hope all AFL footballers read this and embrace creativity.

I feel very strongly about this.

1              Collingwood      (=1)        The most exciting thing about the match was seeing how many supercoach points Dane Swan would rack up. The least exciting thing was the result.

2              Geelong              (=2)        Dasher Milburn is doing ok for a 47 year old.

3              Hawthorn           (=3)        Fun to watch as they play a "crazyhorse" brand of football, however were overcome by the ferals at football park. Still expect big things from the mayblooms.

4              Adelaide             (+8)        Inspired by the memories of 1991 they had a top win over the Hawks. The pre-match pump up address by Wayne Weidemann did its job which was surprising considering he only communicates through grunting

5              Carlton (+6)        Made life difficult for themselves with their goal kicking. Seems that the remedial kicking for goal class should not be ran by Sticks "Helicopter / Floater" Kernahan

6              St. Kilda               (-4)         Penalized a position for bringing the game into disrepute. That was the football equivalent of the Siege of Leningrad - but without any real heroes

7              Fremantle           (=7)        The Purples crept over the line against the Bears, but they'll take the four points back to Paterson stadium. Not bad considering most of their list is in the infirmary.

8              Melbourne         (+9)        Tom Scully has been listening to the Rollins Band song "Liar" on high rotation recently. Let's get the tape measure out on his nose.

9              Sydney (+10)     Sister-kisser for the Swannies. Ryan O'Keefe always steps up when games are on the line. He also nailed the Danish princess so I call him a winner.

10           North Melbourne            (-5)         Bad loss for the shinboners. Absolutely pummeled in the ruck by Dean Cox. It was only some razzle-dazzle from Lindsay Thomas that kept them in the game.

11           Essendon            (+12)     Matty Knights should be taking the credit for his list management and how he rebuilt a rabble of a club from the Sheedy days. But no…. The Bomber fans have written their revisionist history

12           Western Bulldogs           (-11)      As predicted, this is a team that has no engine room, an erratic aging full forward, and a coach that has embraced mediocrity. Can't see why the media rates them

13           West Coast         (+15)     Awesome throw-back outfits on Sunday. Reminded me of the 1987 Eagles, although this side had less mullets and less skill.

14           Port Adelaide    (-13)      Saturday was not a good day to be a Port Adelaide supporter. Same as every other day really.

15           Richmond           (-14)      The fact that Grigg - a Carlton reject - is in their best players speaks volumes about their list.

16           Brisbane              (=16)     Just when you think it couldn't get worse for Brisdizzle….. Perhaps this will be the return of the Bears of old

17           Gold Coast          (=17)     Gary Ablett is now a bit nervous without his buddies surrounding him, providing blocks, shepherds and kind words… This could be ugly
