Why must you always be so negative?
Australia might have the problem of tall poppy syndrome, but this one minor negative means that Australian's are more willing to give everyone a fair go and to get out there and support the underdog in pretty much every sport there is. As they say, the Aussie crowd claps loudest for the last man who crosses the finish line. Isn't that nice?


Better?
