It's fair to say Boxall was channelling his inner Lawrie Lawrence, an Aussie swim coach of much repute.

Lawrence went equally ballistic when Duncan Armstrong won 200m freestyle gold in Seoul back in 1988.

As Lawrence told the hapless reporter: "Stuff the silver, we came here for gold."

Given Titmus swam twice as far, it's only fair Boxall's celebration was twice as exuberant.

Shall we say Aussie celebrations have come a long way since the genteel air guitar days of the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Remember watching on and wondering exactly what the Aussie 4x100m relay team was doing?

It's equally hard to know exactly what Boxall was doing. Safe to say it's more exciting than a fist pump.

Don't think that's the end of it - oh, no, no, no. Now the Boxall's performance, or at least wobbly still pictures of it, gain a life of their own.
