A Rooster fan has returned Cooper Cronk's premiership ring that he lost in the aftermath of Sunday's grand final win over the Canberra Raiders.

A search party was sent out to try and locate the prized item in the rooms after the game, which is estimated to be worth $10,000 and has 160 diamonds.

While he was speaking to the media after the match, a Roosters official walked towards Cronk with the ring in hand.

“I found it for you,” she said while handing the ring over.

Cronl replied: “You’re a godsend."

Th 35-year old said it came off his finger during the post-match celebrations.

“I think in all the jumping around and cheering; I’ve got bad fingers and it must have slid off.”

It marked the veteran's sixth premiership ring, items that he does not display at his house.

“It will collect dust somewhere,” he said.

“I’m not nostalgic, it just sits somewhere in a box and they won’t see the light of day.”
