And Academy manager Dusty Hare says the pair have plenty of potential to succeed.
“The two Frasers have impressed us as they’ve come through the Academy system,” Hare said.
“They’ve got good game understanding, have worked well with the coaches in the Elite Player Development Groups and Junior Saints Academy and have picked up a lot of experience playing in the Scotland and England international age group systems.
“We’re delighted they’ve signed full-time contracts with us and are looking forward to them joining us in the summer.”
