Overview

• Zorko will play his 300th AFL game on Sunday against Hawthorn at the Gabba, becoming the 109th player to reach the milestone.
• Brisbane confirmed a one-year extension for 2026, positioning the 36-year-old to challenge Simon Black’s club mark of 322 games next season.
• He has flourished since moving to half-back after Keidean Coleman’s 2024 injury, building a 60-game streak and pushing for another All-Australian blazer as a defender.
• The former captain debuted at 23 after multiple draft misses and a dominant QAFL run with Broadbeach, with Gold Coast trading him to Brisbane in 2011.
• Coverage differs on milestone framing, with some reports calling him the second Lion to 300 and others listing him as the fifth across the merged Brisbane, Bears and Fitzroy lineage.
