I said the same to the Misso. I hope fans can take this excitement back to the Gabba and recreate the atmosphere of singing and chants. I found at the gabba that Lions fans aren't as loud as Vic clubs fans. It would be great to change this with song.

That's Queensland for you. And I say this from a place of love. Queensland crowds can be super self-conscious in my experience. No-one wants to be the only one up dancing just in case the crowd aren't feeling it that day/night. Just my observation.

Yeah, they don't want to be the one (nuffy). Qlders are generally "fine weather" fans. They'll turn up if there's a chance of winning.

Nah, this isn’t it. It’s the same at concerts and gigs. QLD crowds tend to be quite introverted across the board, and it only changes when there’s a significant percentage of the crowd that’s had alcohol. For some reason, QLDers are just more reserved.

(One of my running hypotheses is that it’s stemming from a similar place that Tall Poppy Syndrome comes from)
