So, the Dogs should have all their points taken off them?
Which means of course, we didn't win the spoon hahaha

97.5% of $11.25m = $10.96875m

Klem's clause means he will need to play at least 14 games to guarantee he has a spot in the Tigers' squad in 2026.

Good morning Tm, your up early again. What's your thought regarding May, do you want him?

Hey bud,
I mentioned earlier that I don't know a lot about him, but from the little I've read, plus he played every game for the rorters last season, YES, I think he is only 25, probably not yet peaked, he would be a great pick up.
It's the position we are most weak in, imo.

I believe having Luai here, plus Benji is still revered by many players, will make his decision easy.

Yep, they are all the valid talking points for sure.
Also, he can play big minutes too, so Hunt would be perfect to come on to give him a rest. What a powerful middle rotation that would be.

It's already been mentioned, but if we were to pick him up, along with our new recruits, and providing we can stay reasonably injury free and Benji can get the team to gell, I do think we would be a top 8 chance.

It's going to happen sooner or later, it may as well be next season.

I also think, when it does happen, we will become one of the power teams in the comp, we have everything in place to stay at the top now.

Couldn't agree more. If we got May then we can judge Benji as a coach at the end of 2025 because he shouldn't have any excuses.
To carve him up now is a bit premature.

If this is true?
Didn’t they stop him from coming here to coach our halves a while ago?

Yes a conflict of interest given he was associated with TAB. NRL doesn't like people associated with gambling companies.

Would have been no conflict whatsoever if he was head of Racing NSW instead.

Terrell May signs three-year deal with Wests Tigers

The Tigers have edged out St George Illawarra for May’s services on a lucrative three-year deal that will see him remain at the joint venture club until at least the end of 2027.
www.smh.com.au www.smh.com.au

It's in the SMH now.

The Wests Tigers have agreed to terms on a three-year deal with prop forward Terrell May after he was granted an immediate release from the Sydney Roosters.

The Tigers have edged out St George Illawarra for May’s services on a lucrative deal that will see him remain at the joint venture club until at least the end of 2027.

May informed St George Illawarra coach Shane Flanagan of his decision on Monday morning.
The news is a significant boost for the Wests Tigers, who have been looking for a frontrower during the past few months.

They’ve held conversations with both Canberra’s Corey Horsburgh and Brisbane’s Kobe Hetherington but were unable to land a deal.
Part of the appeal of linking with the Wests Tigers was reuniting with the likes of Jarome Luai and Sunia Turuva.

Based on what I have seen May will be 100's of times better for Tigers based on his Chooks efforts v Stefano Utoikamanu's efforts for the Tigers.

Unfortunately for us, Bellyache will get Utoikamanu playing like the prop he should be and never could be at the Tigers.
