The pair are both excited for the three-day competition after some 'intense' training with the Hunter side.
"We train most Sundays in Newcastle along side some of the top boys in the Hunter which is pretty exciting to be apart of," says young Baker.
Baker has played for the Singleton Greyhounds for several years now as well as touch football out side of school and says he aspires to become a 'footy star'.
"School is fun and all but when I grow up I want to become a big footy star and play NRL in the big comp," he adds.
Paniora has a strong background in rugby union and has strongly committed to the Singleton Bulls for the last four years as well as touch football outside of school.
"I prefer rugby union to league but do enjoy league a fair bit, I hope to continue playing both," says Paniora.
