Dayne Zorko says the Lions are about to go places so he is going nowhere.
The Brisbane vice-captain could sign a contract extension with the Club before the start of the 2016 season, The Courier-Mail reported.
With a new manager in tow, the midfielder/small forward is keen to lock away a new deal.
Zorko said the environment at the club made the decision to stay a no-brainer.
“I’m happy at Brisbane so I’m sure my manager and the club will go through the process and it (the contract extension) won’t be too far away,’’ Zorko told The Courier-Mail.
“What’s been created by the coaching staff is a really fun environment not only for the younger kids to come into but even us older guys that have been here a while.
“We’ve had a couple of years under the system Leppa (coach Justin Leppitsch) has put in place.
“The way we are moving the ball and our training standards are really picking up.
“I’m excited about the future.’’
“We feel like now we are right on the track and we are building something we all want to be a part of, hopefully the younger guys can stick around and we can build something.’’
Zorko said the extra experience and depth in the Brisbane midfield with the arrival of Ryan Bastinac and Tom Bell was a reason for optimism.
“It’s something we haven’t had since I’ve been here so Leppa might have a headache trying to pick his midfield,’’ he said.
Zorko’s imminent recommitment will take the number of re-signings in the past six months to 10.
Stef Martin, Pearce Hanley, Harris Andrews, Mitch Robinson, Marco Paparone, Rohan Bewick, Ryan Harwood, Jaden McGrath and Josh Clayton have all extended.
