Wests Tigers forward Terrell May addresses vaping allegations

Wests Tigers forward Terrell May publicly denied reports that club players were caught vaping in the team gym. These allegations first surfaced in July, prompting an investigation into the conduct of the playing group. May stated that he was unfairly targeted by the claims and chose to remain silent initially to avoid fueling negative media attention. Coach Benji Marshall previously addressed the rumors in a press conference, characterizing the specific claims about gym activity as misinformation while acknowledging the broader difficulty of monitoring player habits outside of club facilities. May confirmed that he has maintained a year-long hiatus from social media to distance himself from such discourse, though he noted the public speculation remains difficult for his family. The Wests Tigers are scheduled to conclude their 2026 season against the Penrith Panthers on Sunday.
