Orlando Turner is a lightly built small forward who is in Melbourne’s NGA through our Alice Springs connection. 

PROFILED | The 2023 title-winning Allies squad

#20 Orlando Turner


Small Forward | 16/05/2005 | 176cm | 67kg
A National Academy member with nice upside and a bag of tricks, Turner helped ensure the Northern Territory would be aptly represented in the carnival with his two games. He was rotated after gathering six disposals in game one, but returned in game four against Vic Country and booted two goals from eight touches – the second of which both iced the game and the title.

With a name like that, I'm on board already.

We should get him just to break the record for the number of turners on one AFL list - if we haven't already

Rookie draft maybe

 

Not great footage here but in this one he takes a mark and kicks a goal around the 7.37 minute mark. Haven't watched it all thoroughly so may pop up elsewhere throughout the video as well.

Wearing #11

Edit: kicks another goal @8.57 and involved in a bit more play 10seconds later

From my VC v Allies write up 

Orlando Turner kicked the match winner , quiet all day but has burst of pace and looks like he knows where the goals are. Probably rookie pick at best. 

overall summary 

 

Orlando Turner is from NT under our NGA academy. Whilst he was largely quiet, in the two championship games, he showed glimpses of brilliance and goalkicking smarts to indicate he might be picked to develop as a small forward.  Rookie pick likely. 
 

 

My mates cousin is involved with us for the academy, but I don’t recognise this name. I know Kozzie was over at his house a bit when they were here.

 

Is there a list anywhere of our NT academy kids?

ARN seems like a natural fit. Trumps Orlando in the name-stakes. Though Riak is pretty cool.

The Melbourne NGA covers parts of NT (Alice Springs) and it has a Victorian zone as well. Luke Morrell is from Beaconsfield, Buay Duac plays for the Dandenong Stingrays via Seaford/South Mornington.

Pretty sure he would be the first Orlando to play AFL if he makes it.

And if Alonzo Rockland-Nelson makes it, I’m pretty sure that he would be the first Alonzo to make it. What a strange world it is that we live in?

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • PREGAME: Collingwood

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
