Phil Gould nearly signed Terrell May for Bulldogs

Canterbury Bulldogs boss Phil Gould has shared that he nearly signed Wests Tigers player Terrell May. He believes that May, a 25-year-old prop, could soon make his debut for the State of Origin team. May has impressed in the first two rounds of the season, especially after being let go by the Sydney Roosters last year. His journey in rugby league has been up and down. After playing junior football at Penrith, he took a break from the sport before returning through the NSW Cup and eventually the top squad. His departure from the Roosters raised questions. May has indicated he did not receive a clear reason for his release despite signing an extension just months earlier. Now with the Tigers, he is showing strong performance, making a strong case for selection in the NSW Blues squad for May’s upcoming matches. Gould praised May for his recent performances. He stated that May has become more dedicated and is delivering impressive results. He believes that with continued effort, May can reach his full potential. In his first two games, May has averaged 183 run meters and 39 tackles. Fans of the Tigers are already excited about his contributions. Gould had intended to bring May to the Bulldogs 16 months ago, and he still holds May in high regard. While Gould acknowledged that May could potentially play for Origin if he keeps up his form, he chose not to discuss the specifics of the failed signing.
