As we farewell the decade that was from 2010 to 2019, the Sydney Roosters look back on an extremely memorable ten seasons for the Club.
Much like 2013, excitement was brewing ahead of the 2018 season with the addition of two new squad members who would be integral to the success that was to come.
Let's take a stroll down memory lane and remember the NINTH of our ten celebrated seasons.
2018
James Tedesco was named as a star signing midway through the 2017 season, but there was one more surprise on the way during the off season.
Veteran halfback Cooper Cronk was officially announced on a two year deal, and thus began an unforgettable journey for the Tricolours.
The start of the season was a little inconsistent, though there were glimpses of greatness while the new-look spine was working out the kinks.
At around the midway point of the season, the Tricolours were firing on all cylinders.
A clinical 32-0 win over the New Zealand Warriors in Round 10 was the first shut-out of the season, and from there it was mostly magic for the Roosters.
They won 10 out of the remaining 14 games of the regular season to claim the Minor Premiership for the first time since 2015.
MOMENTS TO CELEBRATE
