Yeah but having a large population is a given to success look at Tasmania.
Also I'm not sure what junior sport is like in NSW but they don't seem to be a sport mad city like Melbourne etc etc, I think there major sports like NRL, international cricket are fairly poorly attended considering population.
It can't hurt having a big population but look at us we have finished behind tassie for years now in the shield
Victoria have a large population and they have produced hardly any decent cricketers in the last 20 years compared to NSW.
Dont forget NSW have lost plenty interstate like Hughes and Christian aswell, remarkable job to keep churning them out
NSW do not lose players to rugby. Victoria loses players to football.
