Storm's international representatives returned to training on Thursday morning for a gruelling skills and conditioning session at Xavier.
Kevin Proctor, Jesse Bromwich, Tohu Harris and Cooper Cronk all hit the training track for the first time in 2015 with their teammates. All four players participated in last year's Four Nations tournament in which the Kiwis triumphed 22-18 over the Kangaroos in the final, receiving an extended break before returning to pre-season training at Storm.
The playing group were put through their paces in humid conditions at Xavier College on Thursday morning, facing a demanding skills and conditioning session.
Captain Cameron Smith also returned to Xavier along with the playing group, continuing his rehabilitation from an ankle injury.
