Dayne Zorko has the all-clear to feature in the Brisbane Lions' AFL opener despite the veteran's likely absence from this week's final trial game against Geelong.
A minor hamstring injury has kept the former skipper out of action but coach Chris Fagan said the 34-year-old was an automatic starter despite the Lions' terrific off-season recruitment drive.
"With an older player like him, I'm not actually that concerned (if he doesn't play any practice games)," Fagan said after Zorko trained with the rehabilitation group on Tuesday.
