Anthony Gelling scored six Super League tries during his time with Warrington, helping them to a 2020 play-off semi-final spot

Super League side Warrington Wolves have cancelled the contract of centre Anthony Gelling by mutual consent.

Gelling, who has also played for Wigan, joined Wire from Championship side Widnes Vikings before the 2020 season.

The Cook Islands back, 30, scored seven tries in 13 appearances in all competitions for Warrington.

"The club would like to thank Anthony for his efforts at the Wire and wish him well in the next chapter of his career," a club statement said.

During his time with Warrington, Gelling was suspended by the club following an alleged incident involving his partner in February.

He was charged with assault in July at Warrington Magistrates' Court and denied a charge of grievous bodily harm before a trial date of May 12, 2021 was set at a further hearing, external at Liverpool Crown Court in August.
