Angela ‘Seabird’, 26, has been a member of the Manly Sea Eagles cheer girls for eight years under the guidance of dance mentor Monique Carroll, the wife of former Test front-rower Spud Carroll.
The Macquarie University student is the first Australian girl to even make it to the auditioning stage at the Cowboys, a gruelling three-month elimination program that begins later this month.
“I can’t wait,” Angela told us, “It’s a huge challenge and a huge honour.
“I started at Manly when I was 18 because my dad was a Sea Eagles supporter and I never thought it would lead me to America.”
