BRISBANE Lions captain Dayne Zorko has shut down his Twitter and Instagram feeds after one of his pages was hacked.

Zorko’s Instagram had a message posted to it with a photograph of him asleep on a couch.

The message released details about a personal matter.

The image from Zorko’s account is now being shared widely on Twitter.

“Hi my names Dayne.....

“Thank goodness I know your passcode Dayne so I could see why you actually didn’t care......”

Brisbane Lions have declined to comment on the matter.

Zorko was promoted to captain this season after Dayne Beams stepped down following the death of his father.

Zorko has a child with Brisbane pharmacist Kalinda Salla, 24.

He attended a Melbourne Cup day function in Brisbane yesterday but was not photographed with Salla.

Salla’s Instagram page was filled with pictures of her and Zorko together, with the couple attending a wedding together in October.

But in more recent posts she has only included images of her and their young son.

Salla joined Zorko on the red carpet at the Brownlow Medal in September.

Zorko said last year that he hoped his son would play AFL.

“I think every parent says and believes their kids can do whatever they chose to and I’m no different,’’ he said.

“I’ve got to admit I’ve made sure there are lots of footballs lying around the living room that he can get too.

“Hopefully one day he’ll pick one up and start kicking it around.’’

Salla did not respond to requests for comment.
