TYRONE MAY has signed a two-year contract extension with Hull KR, keeping him at Craven Park until the end of 2027.
May has been instrumental for the Robins since joining the club ahead of the 2024 campaign from Catalans Dragons.
Forming a partnership with Mikey Lewis in the halves, he helped Hull KR reach their first Super League Grand Final last year.
And it was May who provided the kick for Tom Davies’ match-winning try in their recent Challenge Cup final win over Warrington Wolves.
The 28-year-old had previously expressed a desire to return to Australia when his contract expired.
“It was a tough decision, If I’m being honest,” explained May.
“There was a lot of thought that went into it. But I feel like this is the place where I can thrive the most.
“That’s what it came down to in the end. Winning silverware helped at the weekend and made the decision to stay at Hull KR even easier. ”
Hull KR coach Willie Peters said of the new deal: “We’re really happy Tyrone has extended.
“It was important that we let Tyrone make that decision around whether he wanted to go back and play the NRL or play here with us in Super League.
“He’s made the choice to stay here for all the right reasons. He knows that we value him and he values us as a club.
“He’s a really important member of our team and we’re happy that he’s chosen us for another two years.”
