The Wests Tigers are thrilled to confirm contract extensions for both Terrell and Taylan May, with the brothers committing to the Club until the end of the 2030 NRL season.
Terrell – who had 18-months remaining on his contract – is set to play alongside his brother for the next four seasons, as they live out a childhood dream of playing together in the NRL.
The reigning Kelly-Barnes Medalist has been monumental once again to begin the 2026 NRL season, continuing the form that saw him nominated for Dally M Prop of the Year in his first season at Concord.
The 27-year-old averages 161 run metres in 2026, including over 200 run metres in his last three outings, to go along with a season average of 33 tackles per game – illustrating his presence and impact in the middle of the field.
Taylan – who signed a two-year contract in late-2025 – has extended for a further three seasons, with the Samoan international continuing to impress following his arrival on a train-and-trial deal mid-way through last season.
The 24-year-old made an instant impact on his arrival to the Club, appearing in the final seven fixtures of the Tigers 2025 campaign, for a return of four tries, three try assists and six line breaks.
Despite injury punctuating the start of his 2026 campaign, Taylan has made an instant impact scoring in back-to-back games since his return in Round 7.
On signing their contract extensions, the May brothers were excited to remain at Concord and play under Benji Marshall.
Terrell May:
“We love it here and to have our future secured at the Tigers until 2030 is something special.
“Family is so important to us and it’s something that drew me to the Club in the first place. I can’t speak highly enough of Benji and the staff for the support they give us to be ourselves on and off the field.
“I’m really enjoying my footy this year and we’re getting results thanks to the way we’ve trained over pre-season. The focus is just staying locked in and getting better every single day for the boys.”
Taylan May:
“I was grateful for the opportunity Benji and the Club gave to me last year, giving me a chance to come back to the NRL and play with my brother has been a dream for us.
“We both love it here and I love all the boys, we’ve got a great culture. We’re playing our footy and enjoying the process of getting better every day.
“Benji’s been great for all the boys, he makes you a better player and gives you the confidence to go out there and express yourself. He’s been a big inspiration for all of us, and we love playing for him.”
Wests Tigers NRL Head Coach, Benji Marshall welcomed confirmation of the May’s long-term future at Concord.
“We’re so happy to have Terrell and Taylan locked in with us long term,” Marshall said.
They both bring so many things on and off the field to our Club. I love who they are and what they stand for.

“Since Terrell’s been at our Club he’s taken his game to the next level, and I truly believe his best is still ahead of him. I can’t speak highly enough of what he has brought to our team and our culture.
“Taylan’s taken massive steps in his journey and I love that he feels at home with us to be able to be himself. He adds a calmness and an ‘X’ factor to our side in both defence and attack and we value everything he brings.
“What’s clear with both boys is they are ‘all in’ and committed to where we are heading as a Club and are both integral parts of our team.
“I’m just really pleased for our fans that they get to have Terrell and Taylan and their families here for the next four seasons.”
