It's that time of year when we wave goodbye to the off-season and the players return to begin their preparations for the 2017 NRL season.
Today was the first offical day of pre-season for the Roosters, with plenty of new faces and some familiar faces returning to Roosters HQ.
The tough work will come, but today was about welcoming new faces and getting fitted for their 2017 gear.
Stay tuned later in the week for training galleries, new player spotlights and more!
