"There's always some really good young talent at the Knights," Dureau told the Our Town Our Team podcast.
"We had five guys in the NSW under 18s Origin this year which is the most out of any club, which is outstanding.
"Phoenix Crossland was the halfback in that game, played well. Bradman Best, 17-year-old, playing a year young in the Origin and Jaron Purcell, as well is only 17.
"Without going into too much detail. There's some real quality kids that we've got."
The victorious NSW under 18s side featured Knights juniors Bradman Best, Phoenix Crossland, Brock Gardner, Jock Madden and Jaron Purcell.
Since retiring from the game at the end of 2015, Dureau took up a coaching position at the Knights.
The new gig started in 2016 as an assistant to the 20s before evolving into his current pathways position.
