SOME Warrington Wolves fans might find it a little strange seeing former Wire players in other team's colours.

Having cheered them on, backed them, encouraged them, posed for pictures with them and got their autographs, the likes of Blake Austin, Jake Mamo and Sitaleki Akauola are now plying their trade elsewhere in Super League.

All three had runs for their new clubs at the weekend - Austin for Leeds Rhinos, Mamo for Castleford Tigers and Akauola for Salford Red Devils.

So these pictures from the games are a first-look at former Wire men in rivals' colours.
