Dayne Zorko will be free to play for the Lions in the first senior game of 2013 after his match-day striking report was thrown out by the AFL Match Review Panel on Monday.
After viewing all available footage of the incident involving the Western Bulldogs’ Clay Smith, receiving a medical report from the Western Bulldogs Football Club and speaking to the umpire who laid the report on the day, it was the view of the panel that Zorko’s action was not a striking motion.
No further action was taken, meaning that Zorko's untarnished record remains intact.
