Turner, the key defender, has been withdrawn from the match with illness and will be replaced in the team by Andy Moniz-Wakefield.
Moniz-Wakefield will come into the team for his first match of the year as the Demons prepare for the round nine clash.
The game will kick off at 1:10pm as the Demons look to continue their strong start to the 2026 AFL season.
