Tyrone May’s Super League transformation has been hailed, while dreams remain alive of the trio of brothers playing together in the future.
Tyrone May is in red-hot form for Hull KR.
Taylan May has praised the transformation of older brother Tyrone May since his move to Super League, describing him as a “completely different person” – while keeping alive hopes that the trio of brothers will one day play together.
Tyrone is in his third season in East Hull, with the former Penrith Panthers utility having made the move from Catalans Dragons ahead of 2024.
He has since developed into one of the leading figures for the Robins, forming a strong half-back partnership with Mikey Lewis that has helped deliver every trophy available over the past 12 months.
The 29-year-old is in red-hot form under Willie Peters, while the Steve Prescott Man of Steel panel recently met for the first time to deliberate the prestigious award, with a shortlist of five players to be announced on Tuesday evening after the opening nine rounds of Super League.
Tyrone has produced 13 try assists so far – the second-most in the competition behind St Helens’ Jackson Hastings — while the Hull KR stand-off has also crossed the whitewash twice himself.
His development has not gone unnoticed by family on the other side of the globe, with Taylan – the youngest of the three May brothers, including Terrell – praising his progress while also reaffirming the goal of one day playing together.
Both Taylan and Terrell have recently committed their futures to Wests Tigers until 2030, while Tyrone is contracted at Sewell Group Craven Park until the end of 2027.
“That’s always the goal,” Taylan said of the three brothers playing together in the future, talking to Fox Sports.
“My brother’s going really well over there, but in saying that, it’s probably the best thing that’s happened to him.
“He’s changed a lot and he’s just a completely different person and he enjoys it. He gets left alone there, and he loves travelling.
“I learn a lot (from them) but in saying that, I feel like I’m the oldest. I feel like we help each other in different ways.”
