Warrington release overseas trio
Henry Fa'afili
Fa'afili joined Warrington from New Zealand Warriors in 2004
Warrington are to release Henry Fa'afili, Brent Grose and Chris Leikvoll at the end of the season because of salary cap restrictions.

The signings of Matt King, Chris Hicks, Louis Anderson and Michael Monaghan mean their 2008 budget has been spent.

"The three of them are consummate professionals but the cap dictates that we can't have everyone we want," said head coach Paul Cullen.

"The club reluctantly accepts that our loss will be another club's gain."

Prop Leikvoll has made 89 appearances since joining from St George-Illawarra in 2004, and former South Sydney back Grose scored 58 tries in 92 appearances.

Former New Zealand Test winger Fa'afili has scored 72 tries in 92 appearances for the Wolves, and his availability could attract the interest of Bradford.

Before these announcements, it had already been confirmed that half-back or hooker Michael Sullivan would be leaving to join Australian side Canterbury Bulldogs.
