A five-time Merritt-Murray Medal winner, 2017 All-Australian and former Club captain - there are not many accomplishments Dayne Zorko hasn’t achieved in Lions colours. After relinquishing the captaincy at the beginning of 2023, Zorko was one of Brisbane’s most consistent performers following the trend of his career after he was plucked from QAFL in 2012. Playing roles across half-back, half-forward and through the midfield, Zorko’s energy and ball use will be key to success for the Lions this season.
