Brisbane locals aren’t really interested in any sport. They love the Broncos when they are winning but jump off quickly when they aren’t. Their pathetic cricket crowds are joke and if Australia didn’t have such a great record at the Gabba they would have lost their test ages agoBooney wrote:Wedgie wrote:I talked mainly to Union and AFL fans when working in Brisbane several times.

None of the AFL fans were Brisbane fans though, all Victorian teams. A lot of expat Victs in business and govt sectors up there similar to Canberra.
Didn't spend any time with tradies or outer 'burbs where the League element is probably strongest.
Brisbane locals are barely interested in the Lions, it really is a second form of entertainment for them as opposed to a fanatical supporter base.
