Warrington Wolves have confirmed that they have released Tyrone McCarthy and Rhys Williams.

The pair, who made 72 appearances between them for the Super League club, have struggled to hold down places at the Halliwell Jones Stadium in recent months.

"All associated with the Wolves would like to thank both Tyrone and Rhys for their service to the club over the years and wish them well for their future rugby careers," said a Warrington spokesman.

McCarthy joined the Wolves in 2009, while Williams arrived the following year.
