Terrell May approached to leave

[Bansai Pipeline]

Leo Thompson is the only half decent frontie on the market, surely we don't go into next season without replacing May

Yeah, lunatic decision letting him go.

[Tennessee Tornado]

Yeah, lunatic decision letting him go.

Probs not as lunatic as keeping him if there has been some issues.

[Eggspert]

Heard the reason was he was playing up with Connor Watsons’ partner.

I heard Robbo trusted him with the BBQ the other week & things went south pretty quickly.

Gussy seems upset with the treatment of TMay which makes me think he hasn't actually done anything.

Makes it all the much stranger given he is signed on unders realistically. $475K for a prop like him is a bargain imo. I cant make sense of it.

This whole saga also has the potential to build mistrust within the playing group after seeing this done to one of the players. Don't like it personally.

I agree
don’t understand it at all
like you mentioned we have him for unders like it’s not like a Napa situation where we realised we payed overs - and he hasn’t done anything wrong in the past - just his bros so he is a cleanskin atm
all though club coming out saying he doesn’t fit our culture is odd

also that we need to let players go to sign someone we have so much cash with so many players going we don’t need to move anyone on to get another player

shame as the forward pack looked like our main strength next year but he going creates a big hole
hoping it’s just a rumour and it blowes over

That article by Angus certainly adds to the speculation of it being a very strange move by the club.

That little quip about "not heading in the same direction whatever" doesn't cut it as an explanation to fans.

He will certainly be gladly snapped up by eager clubs.

May has performed very well. We resigned him on an enhanced deal that most of us sweated on and celebrated. To then have this vague explanation for a major player move is actually disappointing. Front row stocks much weaker now.

Fark Gussy
who gives a toss about what he thinks of our activities. He is smart but he is also an arse and is our enemy.

[HunchoRooster]

Makes it even more baffling given Gus has come out and said that. Doesn't mean his word is gospel but you'd think if something has gone on off field, the club would be pulling the reigns in on our players saying anything about the situation.

Absolutely baffling. There are literally a dozen people who are better off leaving the club than big Terrell. I have a feeling it's because our guru of a coach doesn't know how to communicate with a bloke as black and white as May. He comes across as somewhat aloof and basic in his opinion on the game. The opposite of Robbo who can talk underwater and would show his working out for a 2+2 = 4 equation. I know out of the 2 who performed their role better last year.

Angus Creighton is our enemy????

[Mr Whippet]

Whilst he is on good wages by the club Gus should pull his head in, the wheels are wobbly enough at the moment, maybe he should reflect how he and his mates folded so meekly in the finals.
As baffling and disappointing losing May is...he's gone, someone else steps up.
The old adage of cemeteries full of people who couldn't be replaced will ring its hollow tune.

[Rooster90]

Exactly my thoughts. Nothing off field must've happened and on field he is a gun. Im lost.

We must be chasing a signing, but even if we get Ben Hunt I'm not sure if we are in a better position now. Prop rotation is very light, especially when you consider Collins & Spencer are away for the middle part of the year with origin.

imagine if this is all just to sign Clint Gutherson - the fans will riot

I was already worried about our middle rotation next year, now i'm terrified
If Egan Butcher has to play big minutes we are in trouble....

Don't worry,his brother will be as devastating as usual. Natbis basically a retarded Shaun Fensom

[Chook2]

It’s all over the shop
players seem to back May
and the roosters are saying he doesn’t for the culture as if he has some something
If we needed money for a big signing it may make sense but we have a lot of cash to spend - and allready loosing 5 of our 17 making another go who is just hitting his prime at 25 and two regular seasons in first grade is odd! Especially when $450k his value for money is really good
unless we snag a Tino / Haas type of player I’m concerned
