Only a 1 year extension. Appears to be a 'keep your nose clean and we might give you a longer contract' next ime...
And more money

Would’ve preferred to keep Blore over May.
Do you not think the club’s brain’s trust are best placed to determine our roster going forward as opposed to the fans. I’m not saying I disagree with you, I’m not, I’m just saying Ivan and his recruitment team and probably in the best position to judge.
Blore has missed just as long. Hasn’t played FG, plays less positions and would be double the price
I think anyone is capable of mistakes, including the club staff. I think letting Blore go was a mistake. We had him under contract for this year, it would’ve been easy to see what he was capable of before letting him go.
I understand the sentiment, but we know how good he is. We don't need to see what he can do, he can do plenty. He is a natural heads up footy player, just the sort of player we need to balance out the automatons we have got in our team like Cleary.That may be true but there is no rush to re-sign him. He has done buggar all on the field the past 18 months and plenty of trouble of it.
There is no reason the club couldn't have waited a few months to see how he performs. On the field and off it.
I don't see the problem with waiting. No other club is going to steal him off us.

They could’ve easily slotted him into FG for a few games this year to see what he’s capable of before letting him go.
As for his contract being double, not sure about that. As you say, he’s an untested rookie.
May is a footy player, Just a natural. Maybe not everything he does come off, but he just offers something the others in our 17 don’t. Why would any coach pick Kenny in front of May if they are only going to play 10-15 minutes, may as well pick Tyrone he is far more likely to offer something positive if you need it late on.
At the price he's going for and the positions he can play, and the ability he's shown when able to get on the field, I wouldn't be so sure about thatWe may need that but there is no reason to rush on him.
Hardly going to be other clubs banging on his door with offers.
May reminds me of Tyrone Peachey, very unpredictable, its a good thing, at the moment we have robotic Cleary, erratic Luai, and a young Burton, May and Api can give us that Spark we used to have with Peach and MoylanAt the price he's going for and the positions he can play, and the ability he's shown when able to get on the field, I wouldn't be so sure about that
The part of May’s game I have always liked is his ball running. He seemed to really pick his moments well and runs good straight attacking lines. There wasn’t much sideways in his game at all, he takes the ball to the line a lot of the time before passing keeping the attack moving forward.May is a footy player, Just a natural.

Upgrade Crichton and Burton before the vultures come end of the year.
Buy a centre.
All I would do before even thinking about re-signing May.
Whether he is cheap or not. He has to prove he has deserved a new deal before I would extend him.
Happy birthday to Tyrone May, who turns 24 this weekend. The utility, who is currently sidelined due to suspension following off-field dramas, has plenty to prove when he finally returns to the NRL this year. Importantly, May is also off-contract and while he’s expected to be retained by the club, it does spark further conversations about how the Panthers could keep May, Jarome Luai and Matt Burton without one of them starting to consider a future elsewhere.
