Miller Cools Zorko Feud Ahead of QClash Semi at the Gabba

Gold Coast view their July thrashing of Brisbane as the template.

Overview

  • The Suns face the defending premiers at the Gabba on Saturday in a semi-final for a preliminary-final spot against Collingwood.
  • Touk Miller says his heated battles with Dayne Zorko are "probably over," though he expects they will cross paths and energise the crowd.
  • The rivalry’s flashpoints include Zorko’s 2018 handshake refusal and Miller’s one-game ban in 2023 for contact during a tackle.
  • Gold Coast’s 66-point win over Brisbane just over six weeks ago is cited by Miller as a confidence boost and tactical blueprint.
  • This is the first all-Queensland final in AFL history, with the Suns arriving off an elimination win sealed by David Swallow’s late point.
