Apart from being rested once, Kayne Turner has been picked for every senior game across the last two years. He is in the side primarily for his pressure acts, as his disposal and goal rates are far below that otherwise required of a small forward, a trend that has continued across six listed years. The rises of younger and more productive versions of the same player in Jy Simpkin and Cameron Zurhaar means Turner could eventually be left behind. Conversely, perhaps those kids are feeding off Turner's selfless acts? Regardless of his job security, Turner is not relevant for fantasy.

Apart from being rested once, Kayne Turner has been picked for every senior game across the last two years.

Conversely, perhaps those kids are feeding off Turner's selfless acts? Regardless of his job security, Turner is not relevant for fantasy.
Turn off Kayne's channel
As a pressure forward, Kayne Turner is beloved by coaches and teammates for his tenacious effort. Unfortunately, he has never shown an ability to add ball-winning to his skill set and averaged a lowly 48 fantasy points last season. Turner should not be considered in drafts and should only be considered as a free agent if his style of play appears to have changed significantly.
Wrong fit for Turner
In his first three seasons, Kayne Turner played more VFL than seniors. That changed in year four as he was picked when fit for every game in the ones, in half of which he failed to reach double figures in disposals. booting just over a goal per game. As a club, North Melbourne just has too many cats of Turner's breed. They don't get involved enough in the play, either offensively or defensively, and Turner doesn't have the excuse of being too green. He doesn't seem to have much of a ceiling.
