Teams will only be allowed to make 120 rotations a game this season as the AFL tries its best to ease congestion on the ground.
The Cats averaged 138 rotations a game in 2013 and Scott and his coaching staff are already looking at ways of getting around the rule for this season.
"We're thinking about it a lot," Scott told reporters at Simonds Stadium on Thursday.
"There are some logical changes that you can make that should reduce your numbers pretty quickly.
"When the sub rule was implemented we did a lot of talking and it wasn't really until we got to put it in to practice that we were able to clearly define what we needed to do.
"I suspect that it'll be the same with the cap. There'll be a lot of theorising and when we get to put it into practice then we'll make some hard and fast decisions about how we'll manage it."
Scott said that he's already noticed a distinct difference in how the rule changes have affected the way teams are drafting and developing their players.
"It's undeniable that you need to be a better aerobic athlete these days. The rule makers have dictated that the game should be played that way and we have no choice but to adapt," Scott said.
"Most clubs would be training for a more aerobic game and we still value the power and speed of the electrifying players in the game, but the rules have gone some way to blunting that a little bit.
"Hopefully we'll come up with some ways to keep that excitement in the game."
Scott is also a fan of the tightening of the head-high rule for 2014. Under the rule, the interpretation will mean players caught ducking into high tackles may be penalised.
"I think it's a great rule. If you go from your normal height and duck down into the tackle then you shouldn't be rewarded," Scott said.
"My suspicion is that that's been the rule all along, it's just been an interpretation. They're just going to be a little bit clearer that if you contribute to that contact then you won't be rewarded. And that makes perfect sense to me."
