B\ufeffrisbane<\/a> veteran Dayne Zorko<\/a> was left fuming after an AFL<\/a> nemesis escaped punishment for what he claimed was a squirrel grip tackle.<\/p>\n

It was during \ufeffthe third quarter of Saturday's southern Queensland derby when Suns<\/a> star Touk Miller grabbed hold of his opponent and brought him to ground.<\/p>\n

But Miller's right hand grabbed hold of the most sensitive part of Zorko – whether it was intentional or not, only the tackler will know.<\/p>\n

Audio from the moment reveals Zorko yelling, "He just grabbed my f—ing nuts", and replays clearly proved his allegation.<\/p>\n

But Miller escaped any sanction from the match review officer.<\/p>\n

Speaking on SEN radio on Monday, Zorko questioned how such an act could go unpunished.<\/p>\n

"It's interesting, you're allowed to grab the groin region now and squeeze it and do whatever you want to it," Zorko said.<\/p>\n

"So that's an interesting rule that's been cleared by the AFL.<\/p>\n

"It's quite interesting that (he) got off. We had really good evidence to support the case.<\/p>\n

"I tell you what, my groin region is quite bruised at the moment. It's funny how that all happens."<\/p>\n

Zorko pointed out the AFL must be consistent in not punishing similar incidents in the future.<\/p>\n

"They've set the precedent now," he said.\ufeff<\/p>\n

The Suns won the fiery derby by 41 points, causing a boilover against the more fancied Lions.<\/p>\n
