Background
In the 21st round of the 2021 NRL season, May made his debut for Penrith against the Sydney Roosters. In Round 3 of the 2022 NRL season, May scored a hat-trick in Penrith’s 38–20 win over Newcastle. In the next round against South Sydney in the Grand Final rematch, he made two attempts in Penrith’s 26–16 victory.
On 6 April 2022, May was charged with bodily harm by Queensland Police. The allegation pertains to an incident that happened in November 2021 while May was on leave after the 2021 NRL season. He is 1–0 in his professional boxing career, fighting on Paul Galen’s undercard against Darcy Lusick, defeating Sydney Roosters hooker Freddy Lusick. On 31 August 2022, May was found guilty of assaulting a man, following Penrith’s 2021 NRL Grand Final victory. May was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine and no criminal conviction was filed.
He is the brother of rugby league players Tyrone May and Terrell May.
Son
The brother of sacked Penrith Panthers star Tyrone May has taken to Instagram in a show of his support as Five-Eighth faces an uncertain NRL future.
The Panthers board met on Wednesday to discuss May’s future after the 25-year-old was severely criticized for an Instagram post that referred to his conviction for involvement in a sex tape scandal.
Contract
Penrith Panthers are thrilled to announce that Tylon May has signed a two-year contract extension with the club.
The 20-year-old winger has committed to the Panthers until at least the end of the 2024 season.
“It’s an honor to be signed to the club again. Playing for the Panthers has always been my dream and I am making it a reality now.”
“Growing up at Mount Druitt, I am not only playing for myself, but I am playing for my family and the entire community.
“The Panthers jersey means a lot to me – I am humbled and grateful for the opportunity that has been given to me.”
Brother
The brother of sacked Penrith Panthers star Tyrone May has taken to Instagram in a show of his support as Five-Eighth faces an uncertain NRL future.
The Panthers board met on Wednesday to discuss May’s future after the 25-year-old was severely criticized for an Instagram post that referred to his conviction for involvement in a sex tape scandal.
The picture was captioned with lyrics by Canadian rapper Drake, which read: “And the shit they threw at my name turned to mud and I grew it up. It’s time for you all to find out.” What do you do about it “Love my brothers”.
Salary
The Panthers have a hat squeeze to cause significant headaches for the club, but a clever signing could ease the mountain men’s pay woes.
According to The Daily Telegraph, Premier has signed Tigers backrover Luke Garner, who reportedly took a pay cut on his $375,000 contract.
The 26-year-old will fill the hole left by fan-favorite William Kikau, who would have shelled out upwards of $800,000 to stay at the club.
