The Brisbane Lions players will enjoy a well-earned two-week break over the Christmas and New Year period after enduring a couple tough months of pre-season training.
The Club itself will also shut down for the holidays at 2:30pm on Friday 21 December 2012, before re-opening for regular business at 8:30am on Monday 14 January 2013.
