OFFICIAL Taylan "Tiny" May

Richo literally gave us a time line 3 to 4 weeks training then back through cup, if hes playing well enough by then he's a shot at FG. But yes agree 5 weeks minimum before we see him back in 1st, unless there's a catastrophic injury toll between now and then in the outside backs.
Yep, that's what those numbers are based off. Said it a week ago no? But yes, he really is mostly a signing for next year, not this one. If he played 3-4 games at the end of the year that would be great IMO.

I thought he was on a train and trial for this season.

If he’s designed for next season, we should probably lock him in shouldn’t we?

Otherwise, we have to face the might and power of Souths and those who would want to harm us.

I think Gould has denied any interest…and that’s always a worry.

Mate, Tiny was a very good winger 3 years ago. He was an average centre 18 months ago. It's not like we've just signed Herbie or Critta or even another T'oa. I think you need to relax.

He’s got a good sleight of hand, inch perfect pass, a fair turn of speed and deceptive power. I’ve been watching the footage of him bending huge props over without too much of a run up on returns.

He’ll put a lot of respect back into our line with his strike and I think he’s going to create opportunities for everyone around him. That’s what fast and focused players do.

We haven’t had his class of player in our centres for a long time.

I love Adam, but he’s a very different style of player -coming back from injury and drama, the sky’s the limit for him. So yep, Im pretty confident about him and what he will bring. Once he gets his claws into it, I think he could have the same impact on our side as his brother.

A fully amped up Taylan surrounded by our current crew will “complete” our backline and be entitled to the description of being “lethal.”

My thoughts anyway. It’s great to have him. Massive.

Has anyone even seen his training yet?
Ive seen this question asked a few times and no one has answered...
Surprised he isn't in the social media snaps... Maybe it's strategic and they are keeping it low key so he can focus on his footy without distractions...

The moment he plays NRL again, he's going to be splashed all across the media for sure with ppl questioning whether he should be playing etc .
 
I feel Taylan will be kept in the back ground for a while , he has plenty of support around him in his Brother , Luai , And others , he will also have plenty of support from around his family and friends including panthers ex team mates , The club know the risk and will do everything it can to keep him focused , his brother will also let him know its most likely his last chance to get back to the top level and earn good money , I’m happy we have him and feel he will come good and get a 3 year deal at the end of his year , first grade games maybe in about 6 weeks or so , he won’t play any games I think for a couple more weeks then play off the bench first up and progress with match fitness via reserve grade , I hope he makes it as he will be handy ,

A fan posted photos from training in a WT supporter group on Facebook last week. In a few pics, he was with S&C staffer Graeme Morris which is understandable.
