Apart from Maxwell getting shafted a few times, we've done alright in recent years with national selections.
It's not the pitch that's the problem (SA's lack of players was happening long before drop-ins), it's a cultural thing. Maxwell was right about his comment on batting behind Wade, and you wouldn't see NSW still giving red ball games to a player like Finch.
Still, if you blame the pitch, Junction Oval and it's permanent track should at least help remedy that.

That said NSW are still playing Cowan despite him having the same fate.
