An under 16s competition run by the NSWRL to help showcase emerging junior talent, the Harold Matthews Cup brings some of the best young squad members from the NRL and NSWRL teams and pits them against each other in a competition format.
Both Haeata and Murray played crucial roles in the Cowra Magpies' under 15s team's second consecutive premiership at Jack Arrow Oval earlier in the year.
Haeata was named player of the match for his efforts on the day, while Murray skippered the side and scored in the come-from-behind victory against the Bathurst Panthers team.
The Raiders' squad numbers will continue to be whittled down ahead of the 2020 commencement date.
This year's Harold Matthews Cup was won by the Newcastle Knights.
