Wellingham, Marsh, Abbott... We’ve had a couple of WA players go back for one reason or another.
Maybe they think the SA boys are slightly more likely to settle long term in Melbourne
Demographics play a part.
Population growth. Incomes.
Some may feel weather/lifestyle.
Proximity to home and time it takes are all factors that make the drive back to WA relatively greater v SA where again relatively more people want to leave.
So the draw back to WA is in relative terms greater than the draw back to SA.
