The Dragons playmaker will leave Australia at the end of this season.

Wolfpack is based in Toronto but competes in the League One division in the UK. Sitting atop the competition ladder, the side is expected to be promoted to the Championship League next year.

McCrone will join fellow former NRL player Fui Fui Moi Moi.

The 30-year-old regularly cops criticism from Dragons fans and bore the brunt of the backlash after the Dragons narrowly defeated the struggling Knights last weekend.
