The number one place I’ve seen the current flag flown in the recent past is the Cronulla riots, the early 2010s patriot rallies, the anti vax rallies and amongst the bogans on Aus day.

Whats with the obesession with flags?

Correct me if I’m wrong and judging by your post I may be a bit older then you but the cricket on Australia Day from memory was a one dayer normally in Adelaide? Could be wrong.
Referring the hottest 100 as still going strong doesn’t really fly because of the demographic of people that constitutes triple Js audience.
The BDO was also a big Aust Day item that fizzled out but not because of Australia Day. It was run in plenty of other places not on Australia Day. The demise had nothing to do with the day it was on.
There are a few things that are still going strong on Australia Day. There has been a noticeable shift in the rhetoric in my area. Much more promotion of activities etc on the day. Definitely more noticeable than the past few years.

Correct on all counts.
The one dayer was usually scheduled as a big match.
