Wests Tigers have received a major boost for life after Jarome Luai, securing the long-term futures of brothers Terrell May and Taylan May.
In the week Luai agreed to join the PNG Chiefs for the start of the 2028 season, the May brothers have confirmed they will remain at Concord until 2030.
Prop Terrell and centre Taylan were both free to entertain offers from the Chiefs when they entered the final 12 months of their existing deals on November 1.
The pair have both signed three-year deals, announcing their decision to stay loyal to Benji Marshall.
“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.
“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.”
