Terrel May

[denis preston]

The Roosters site has May at 183cm

Clearly as accurate as their “ official “ player contracts

I feel like we're a rank outsider for Terrell May. He's a proud westie who's openly stated he hates the beach. I know we can offer him suburbs like Beverly Hills or Calderwood but that might not be far enough west for him. I think he'll go closer to his home

He'd love DAPTO then wouldn't he

May has the Samoan connection with Sua, Leilua and Molo plus i think we can offer him the most money. I think we are a bigger chance than what people think if we go for him

True and hope you are right MD.

Young, no concern about third year issue for the club.

Just sit him down with Gutho for five minutes as he's bought in.

Offer him 4 years $600-700K a year. Get it done, then go harder for a decent half.
Between now and March see what else falls from the tree, preferably another quality forward.

How do you price him.. 475k is the sort of massive unders that only a Top4 club gets away with..

The best props in the game are prob on 1million.. we were going to pay 1.1mil for AFB (AFB is a different beast mind you), we were going to pay I think 850k perhaps for RCG (same for Stefano I believe).. what are we willing to pay May?

Bloody good question.

May's stats are very impressive but that's around a quality pack who work in unison.

I wouldn't like to be paying anywhere near AFB money

We can only leave that to Flanno

He was on $950k at the Roosters, you would have to think it would have to be around that mark.

Over two years - not one
Flanno wouldn't part with 950 per season

oh ok, so he was on $475k per season, that seems a bit low, but it is the Roosters and we know what uncle Nick does best. Thanks for that HOD.

I'm basing on original reporting when Terrell released

The Sydney Roosters have approached prop Terrell May to discuss parting ways immediately, granting the Samoan international permission to join a rival club in 2025. May, who only this year signed a new contract worth around $950,000 over two years, has now been offered the chance to seek a deal elsewhere.

But I just had a look around and I've seen the above, plus higher, and even as high as 850K per season.

Ahh, the media! Like me, they never let the truth get in the way of a good story

Who knows!

 

[Trifili13]

The Roosters pay him $475k per season as reported but when he is released it creates $1m is salary cap space. Didn't any of you guys do maths at school?

 

[TheRev]

Yep 475 + incentives is classic roosters.. the other question is how long a contract do you offer.. hes coming into his prime, but I suspect motivation is important for him.. so 2yrs might be ideal.. but maybe 3 is more reasonable.. he is coming into his prime tbf.

And then what length are the dogs and titans offering.. and what does he even want I do wonder.. I do wonder if his manager was constantly agitating for an upgrade perhaps.. one reason they might have moved him on.

Whilst many of us would like the club to sign May, my expectations are low.

I would expect him to go to Dogs before us

They are 2 years ahead of us in their rebuild

I agree, and as @st.phil says above, the pro Ciraldo puff piece has appeared in the press already.

 

[st.phil]

Although I think Cook - Holmes - Gutho are bigger fish, this could be Flanno's statement signing considering the shortage of alpha props and Dogs keen interest

 

[Macedonian Dragon]

I think 600-650k is May's worth

 

[Veteran Dragon]

May had a great 24 season and with the shortage of big talented front rowers on the market I would be inclined to pay reasonable overs for him.
