Biography
Orlando is a welcome addition to the Leeds Corinthians family, joining in 2017. Orlando has quickly established himself as a first team regular with his deceptive speed and powerful scrummaging up front.
Orlando has brought many things to the club since he arrived. He is now official club nutritionist and is actively advising players on their diet, such as Andy "Wilko" Wilkinson. Orlando swears by the yam, a potato like vegetable which Orlando says provides power and stamina. He is still actively trying to get Wilko and others to swap kebabs for yams to improve their physique.
Orlando is also the club romance expert. On his debut game at Stanley, Orlando shocked his fellow players by entering the dressing room with a bunch of roses in his kit bag. He then proceeded at the end of the game to present said flowers to a lady friend who was watching. This stud didn't stop there though. In the clubhouse, he got the Corinthians team to serenade her with a rendition of "You've got that loving feeling". Some players are concerned that Orlando is putting them to shame, and other partners will be now expecting similar gestures.
