Well Menai is already gone. No Seniors team. Add to that Souths Junior clubs struggled in '19 with 16s and Opens only fielding single combined sides. Also note south west has Campbelltown and Camden playing in the Illawarra competition.

If you are referring to the population data it is from 2012 census. The scale isn't shown, still plenty of population around Kellyville, just lower density compared to other parts of Sydney.

I previously did this same map showing 2012 population data from the census. Some of Sydney's most dense population runs straight west from McDonaldtown through Dulwich Hill, Campsie, Bankstown, & Liverpool. The only club in this region is Canterbury.

Begs the question as to why both Naiyaravoro and Skelton both went to the Premiership to develop true potential as Rugby players. Skelton in particular is now an absolute weapon at Saracens.

Who is getting the TV coverage this year?

Have heard from a pretty good source that they will be moving around to a few grounds including possibly a match or two out at Nepean.

If there are any doubts that rugby is in trouble:

So I added the NSW Subbies to the map. Note Campbelltown play in the Illawarra comp so weren't part of the data set. Population data is from the 2011 census. Subbies in Red, Shute in Black. As previously stated Juniors would be interesting to add, though the data is harder to gather.

Agree. My approach would be taking the hard decision and relocate some of the existing teams. I don't have a list of Junior teams. Do you know where I could get one?

Shute Shield Expansion? I created this heat map using population data from Sydney region and plotted the existing Shute Shield team locations (black dots).
