Aaron, I think these almost certainly are Thelymitra leaves, although not always easy to separate from Calochilus at this stage. The narrow deeply channelled laeves suuggest T. pauciflora.

Thanks Tony, good to get your thoughts on these. It's a good little hot spot in this area where I know of several species all popping up in the general area at different times of year... I want to explore Goorooyarroo some more this coming season, it's a great nature park and really huge...
