The Gold Coast in real life kills teams, no one is ever successful as it's a tourist city (think Las Vegas). With Wollongong they have the whole Illrawarra area which is almost 500k, plus they love sport.

Geelong has a massive baseball community down here and most of the Melbourne Aces fan would be from here. (Aces need to move to the city I believe irl). The Greater Geelong area has almost a population of 250k, which fill the 30,000 Geelong Cats stadium every game.

I would add maybe Newcastle and Wollongong. I know that gives NSW 3 teams and all other states 1 but NSW state population is 7.6 million which is way more then the next with Victoria 2nd at 5.9 million followed by QLD with 4.7 million.
