This smells: Roosters Legend Speaks Out…….

May Could Secure A More Lucrative Contract Elsewhere, Possibly Exceeding $600,000 Per Season.

In a surprising turn of events, NRL great Bryan Fletcher has expressed confusion over the Sydney Roosters’ decision

to allow prop Terrell May to leave for a rival club, effective immediately. This move comes shortly after reports

emerged that the Roosters are eyeing a short-term contract for Ben Hunt, recently released by the Dragons.

Having re-signed with the Roosters just months ago, May was expected to step up as a key player following Jared

Waerea-Hargreaves’ departure. His performance this season has positioned him among the top props in the league,

making the decision all the more puzzling.

“This smells,” Fletcher remarked on SEN’s The Run Home, questioning the rationale behind the club’s choice. With

Waerea-Hargreaves moving on, the Roosters need strong front-row support, and many wonder what might be

motivating the shift.

Sources suggest that the Roosters are attempting to clear salary cap space, potentially for a high-profile signing.

Fletcher speculated whether they are making room for a big name, like Ryan Papenhuyzen, hinting at a significant

player acquisition on the horizon.

Despite rampant speculation, journalist Michael Chammas clarified that this decision appears to be purely football-

related, with no incidents or off-field issues prompting May’s exit. It seems both parties may benefit, as the Roosters

pivot toward a new direction while May could secure a more lucrative contract elsewhere, possibly exceeding

$600,000 per season.
