www.afl.com.auI currently don’t have live access to current news feeds in this moment. Here’s a concise update based on the latest widely reported context up to early 2026:
- Dayne Zorko remains a prominent figure for the Brisbane Lions, with ongoing discussions about his future and potential further seasons continuing into 2025 and 2026. Reports around 2024–2025 centered on leadership questions and contract considerations as he moved deeper into his long AFL career.[2][4]
- He has dealt with calf injuries during recent seasons, which have affected playing time but not sideline him long-term in the broader picture of his career with Brisbane Lions.[3]
- In 2025 there were strong media narratives about whether he would continue as captain or transition leadership roles, alongside reflections on his form and value to the team as another season approached.[2]
