OFFICIAL Taylan "Tiny" May

Teachers aren’t at school enough to competently complete the curriculum. There’s no way you could give them more to do.

And from what I see it’s all about generating data these days now and not much time left for teaching anyway

Physically, To'a has it all over Doueihi.

If he can find even a modicum of consistency, AD will be squeezed out in the event Taylan signs.

Parramatta's centres were one of their strengths yesterday considering the side they were able to field. Yet we held them extremely well.

Considering we've somewhat patched together our 3/4 line at the moment, I think we've done ok against two teams with strong centre pairings.

This week against the Dolphins, they'd be MAD to not attack Averillo's side every set. His edge can be deplorable at times.

there's points around their centres and halves, without question. if we limit the output of their backs working the ball away and prevent quick play the balls we will go a long way towards winning.

Just got to be careful of giving their centres any time as both are much faster & agile than Lomax & Penisini so will look to exploit AD laterally.

definitely a different challenge. physically I think they match up, the issue is just Redcliffe's speed, as you say.

Is Bostock still injured? He's a good player. Hope Bula is alright, good matchup against Hammer.

Agree I think Taylan is still in the potential to re-offend category. Judging by his social media antics over the past few weeks it doesn’t seem like he’s done a lot to better his image

Whats he doing?

I think he’s back against us

Was out round 2 from memory. Not sure if its an extended out or not.

I'm a bit of a boxing fan and if you read about the Waters brothers, Paul Briggs etc you'll know exactly the terrible affect dysfunctional fathers can have on young lives. I think the May brothers suffered a similar upbringing, having watched Terrell's video of their father. If you're not that well equipped anyway and your old man is a relentless moron, good luck! Terrell seems to be a fantastic story of redemption in my opinion. There's a bloke that needs to be recognised.

Got a link for this TB thnx?

It's one of the first vlogs he did on his YouTube channel.

 

[Tiger Stripes]

Who does he replace from the two today? Ad or star?

Whoever is not up to it?
Great competition creates better players-----every week!

That's the thing. I think toa was great today and doueihi is growing in the role, adds so much passion to the team, while being a great goal kicker. Naden was great before injury too.

If taylan comes, i dont think he slots straight in. We need to think long and hard on the cultural aspect on this one. Max id sign him for a year.

Penrith were so quick to get him off their books when the charge happened.

None of them straight away if we can sign him he will need the run in reserves for a few weeks with all the time out of the game, opportunity will come when injuries happen our centres have a history in this department unfortunately, when he gets his chance it's up to him to hold on to his spot.
Would be so good to have depth with them 3 fighting it out.

The question is then if he is depth, will he disrupt the culture. Is it worth it? We've tried the whole unruly brother thing with BJ leilua - we can't go repeating history. I dont know the guy, just going off the rap sheet. But benji and richo will make the right call.

If he fronts up to the talks with the wrong attitude, benji should turn him away. Take a leaf from Bellamy's book.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

I still think we need him for a couple of reasons, 1) he's a strike outside back it would be great to have one of those in the centre's. Toa is always an injury risk and AD has big question marks on his defense.
2) Terrel wants to play with his brother if he signs elsewhere say goodbye to Terrel when his contract is up. I'm not necessarily in favour of keeping siblings happy at the club but, both are gun players granted Taylan is a bit of a head case but you have Terrel, Api, Luai ect enough big personalities to keep him in check and of course Benji thats his job.

Apart from all the headlines he has created in the last year what I find interesting is someone posted on here was they were living together again it just makes you wonder if true just how bad the situation really was.
Taylan has shown how good a player he is, BJ was on the nose at the raiders and when he came across was at the end of his career and with the blubber he was carrying would have landed in what we call now the fat club.
All signings can be a risk but I would take it with Taylan upside could be huge, imagine him at his best in yesterday's game.

I'd sign Taylan May on a 2 year deal with out clauses for the club if he screws up

Wondering if this is the reason for the hesitation media is reporting if he is innocent he might resent any such clauses, hope it sorts itself out someone else will snap him up.

 

[rZEROd]

If he signs elsewhere, does that put Terrell at risk of staying?

Sure hope not!
