Though the Roosters struggled through their first game of the season, Copley had a strong debut for the Club, with a line break and two try assists to his name.
Copley missed ten weeks of NRL action after injuring his pec against the Cowboys in Townsville.
He looked right at home a few rounds after his return though, and even had his face in the highlight reels for some key plays at the back-end of the season.
The Roosters Round 21 clash with the Broncos was memorable for Copley, with the centre scoring two and setting up one in an impressive performance against his old club.
Though his season was interrupted with injuries, Copley will look to improve in 2017 and make the centre position his own.
