Michael Monaghan - Coach Des Hasler has tagged the Canberra recruit a future international. Will be given the job of steering the Sea Eagles around the park.

"I think if this side (has a dig), if they can compel themselves to do that and us as coaches can bring it out in the players, I think there's enough talent in this football team to win our share of games."
