}}

Dayne Zorko (born 9 February 1989) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League (AFL). Zorko is a four-time Merrett–Murray Medallist and was selected in the 2017 All-Australian team. He was also the Lions' leading goalkicker in 2016 and 2017. Zorko has served as Brisbane Lions captain since midway through the 2018 season, after Dayne Beams stepped down from the captaincy.

Early life

Zorko was born and raised on the Gold Coast where he attended Benowa State High School throughout his teenage years.[1][2]. His Slovenian father immigrated from Yugoslavia to Melbourne before settling on the Gold Coast before having children. His brother, Beau, is the former senior coach of the Surfers Paradise Demons.

Dayne began playing his junior football for the Surfers Paradise Demons at the age of four but later switched to the Broadbeach Cats. He captained Queensland during the 2007 AFL Under 18 Championships but was overlooked in the 2007 AFL draft. Zorko remained at Broadbeach and picked up his first best-and-fairest award in 2008, but was again overlooked in the AFL draft.

By the end of the 2010 season, Zorko had picked up three consecutive best-and-fairest awards at Broadbeach but still failed to capture the interest of any AFL clubs. He found himself at a crossroad when being offered contracts to play in higher standard leagues outside of Queensland but eventually decided to stay at Broadbeach for the 2011 NEAFL season. Broadbeach coach Matt Angus knew Zorko had the skills to make it in the AFL but described his professionalism as "nowhere near that" required of an AFL player.[3]

At the conclusion of the 2011 season, after winning the NEAFL's Syd Guildford Trophy as the league best-and-fairest, along with a fourth consecutive club best-and-fairest, he was put back on AFL recruiters' radars.

AFL career

Zorko was recruited by {{AFL GC}} as a Queensland zone selection, before being on-traded to the {{AFL BL}}. Zorko made his AFL debut against {{AFL Col}} at the Gabba in round 7, 2012, and quickly made a name for himself as a small half-forward flank who could kick freakish goals, leading to the nickname "The Magician".[4] He quickly became a cult figure at the Lions despite the team's woes, with Michael Voss being sacked as coach before the end of the 2013 season and the Lions hovering around the lower reaches of the ladder for several seasons.

After a consistent first few seasons, Zorko was named as the joint winner of the Merrett–Murray Medal in 2015 as Brisbane's best-and-fairest, alongside Dayne Beams, Stefan Martin and Mitch Robinson.[5] He went on to also win the award in 2016 and 2017,[6] as well as lead the Lions' goalkicking during those seasons, and was also selected in the 2017 All-Australian team as a forward pocket.[7]

Zorko replaced Beams as the Lions' captain during the 2018 season after Beams stepped down from the captaincy for personal reasons, with Harris Andrews taking over as vice-captain from Zorko.[8] His first match as captain was in round 10 against {{AFL Syd}} at the Gabba.[9]
