A beautiful morning in Perth greeted the Sydney Swans during Saturday's training session at Subiaco Oval.
With the suns on their backs the players had a light stretch and run around the ground's wide expanses before being put through drills under the watchful eye of the coaches, all in preparation for Sunday's showdown with Fremantle.
Also in attendance were supporters young and old who, decked out in red and white, couldn't wait to see their heroes in their home city for the first time in 2016.
They cheered as each and every one of our Round 19 side took to the field, saving the biggest applause for veteran Ted Richards.
After training, the squad spent some time mingling with fans and signing autographs.
Check out some of the best photos from the session below.

Welcome back, Toby!
It's a young ruck combination but an exciting one! This will be Sam Naismith's first time playing at Subiaco.
Not this man's first time here. WA-raised Lance Franklin lines up for goal.
George Hewett stands the mark while Dean Towers has a shot.
Kieren Jack was in great spirits.
A man who's very familiar with this ground, Brett Kirk, leads from the front.

Autograph time! Our co-captain was a popular man.
As was Aliir Aliir.
