The meaning of "mateship" can be positive or a bit spicy and has changed over time. Have a read of the Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mateship

As an aside, I enjoyed the section on "mate":

"In Australia, a 'mate' is more than just a friend and is a term that implies a sense of shared experience, mutual respect and unconditional assistance.

"The term includes use in ways other than friendship like getting someone's attention, replacing a name, questioning a statement, letting one know to calm down and referring to someone in a rash or harsh way."

Mate.
