Boyd Cordner grew up outside Taree as well before going into the Roosters junior program - so you missed another one from Souths
Souths could probably claim Mitch Aubusson as well

Luke Keary grew up in Kellyville which is South of Box Hill.
Box Hill is in Melbourne which is South of everywhere. So, yep , another Souths Junior for sure

A junior is defined as

(for Canberra) someone who came through the professional system from Harold Matts
(for Roosters) someone who was born in Bondi and played for one of 3 clubs since they were 6 years old
Victor Radley grew up in Bronte and played for Clovelly - does that make him a Souths junior?

You forgot to mention that a Raiders junior can be from anywhere in regional NSW but a roosters junior is poached if they grew up in Randwick.

All our talented juniors in our small catchment areas get poached by other clubs for crazy amounts. So, through Mr Politis's and Mr Robinsons smart analytics, we take players who wouldn't have made starting sides in other clubs and turn them into superstars with rings :)

We have so many juniors that we needed to double our rep squads to house them all.
And they still all get poached :(

Who cares? Its the LC's paying for Jnrs not the NRL clubs. I'd say anyone signed at U18's then makes first grade at a club is deemed a "jnr".
Before that they are under the state bodies and funded by pokies mostly.

Ryan Halls form has headed south since he's come south... So it's only fair to count him as a souffs junior.
