The rock in the Demon defence is a dependable and constant presence in the Melbourne back six. May has played 22 or more games in each of the previous three seasons. A two-time All-Australian in 2021 and 2022, May is amongst the league’s best lock-down defenders and also damages the opposition with his intercept marking and penetrating boot. May secured a fifth-placed finish in the 2023 Bluey Truscott and will be relied upon as an integral member of the back six in 2024.
