THE BRISBANE Lions have become the first club to confirm a change in pre-season training to condition players for the new interchange cap.

Physical performance manager Brett Burton confirmed on Tuesday the Lions would undertake more aerobic training ahead of next season's limit of 120 rotations per match.

The AFL Commission has approved the cap for the next two seasons.

The Lions will start pre-season training in early November with a two-week altitude camp in Arizona.

Burton said the Lions had been forced to re-think their approach after last month's decision.

Not unexpected given we have gone to Arizona before.  Note they are only taking 5 year players to change the training.

Last paragraph is interesting with Black and Brown still to confirm intentions.
