WARRINGTON Wolves have jetted off on their ground breaking 23 day pre-season tour to Australia thculminating in ‘the Wire’ taking on Hollywood star Russell Crowe’s South Sydney Rabbitohs, in a pre-season warm-up match at Redfern Oval. 
The tour is being sponsored by Emirates Airline as the Wolves bid to build on the successes of the past three seasons which have culminated in two Challenge Cup victories at Wembley and the League Leaders Shield.
Warrington Wolves captain Adrian Morley (pictured) who enjoyed a 6 year stint in the NRL with the Sydney Roosters said: “”An English Super League club taking its team on a training and playing tour ‘down under’ is very exciting. Emirates has such a rich heritage within world sport and with their support this should be a momentous occasion that really captures the imagination of our supporters.” 
Laurie Berryman, Emirates’ Vice President UK & Ireland said: “We have been a strong supporter of the Warrington Wolves in the UK for a number of years now and it seems fitting that the squad will be travelling on one of our daily A380 services to Sydney via our industry leading Terminal 3 in Dubai.”
Speaking ahead of the Emirates Tour 2012 Hollywood star and South Sydney Rabbitohs co-owner Russell Crowe said: “I have been very interested watching Warrington’s progress in the last few seasons. They have become a real force. I’m sure it will be a good sharpening up for both teams and a treat for South Sydney Members. ”
