Zorko threw up his name as a potential recruit in recent days given how fit he looks as he works with the club’s younger players.
He played his first game of the year for Queensland league side Morningside last weekend and kicked a goal.
He played all three finals in a 23-game season last year for the Giants to finish his AFL career with 101 games and at only 32 years of age might be a perfect addition for the Lions.
Brisbane has four spots available for the May 28 mid-season draft after two more ACL tears across the weekend.
It means the club has frantically been scouring the state leagues to assess potential recruits who could help it fill holes in its team.
But bringing state league players into the side can be challenging given their levels of fitness and difficulty in learning a game plan in a matter of weeks.
Marlion Pickettis the most famous graduate of the mid-season draft given he won a premiership in his first season at the Tigers after making his debut in the Grand Final.PLAYERCARDSTART50Marlion Pickett

But players including Sam Durham (Essendon) and Jai Newcombe (Hawthorn) are forging exceptional careers after being taken in the 2021 mid-season draft.
North Melbourne and Richmond have top-three picks in the mid-season draft but West Coast does not have a selection at the moment.
Small forward Noah Long is out with a PCL sprain and could eventually be put onto the long-term injury list but is currently on the senior list.
Andrew Gaffhas no intention of retiring mid-season despite playing only a single game this season in the last year of his deal.PLAYERCARDSTART3Andrew Gaff

He is determined to win back his spot in the side and is even open to playing on next year at a club if he can find a suitor.
Wouldn't have tipped it but given we have four spots, it absolutely makes sense to me. Daniel is more likely to have an impact if needed than whoever we're taking last second.
