Exactly, ANAVERAGESTEM.
From a bigger league and behind the striker/winger players, not level with them. Distribution, attacking passing, yes. With some rather modest at A League level right backs, (Sheridan/Loke) someone has to generally force play forward other than MgGarry/Scott. I imagine Rufer/Anderson will orient things forward, then Bryce Duke the directly attacking moment that makes defenders chase back as the ball reaches the strikers/Walker. I think it's better to put more pressure to take shots on Duran/Piper/Bidois/Walker to start with early on.

<With the rest realistically shared between Duke, Anderson, Rufer, McGarry most likely, with 1 goal for each centre back maybe> My point here <> is realistically A League, think of Adelaide attacking over years, very shared effort goals/assists. I imagine Chris Greenacre wants that, he said a number of players are expected to score a couple in his system.

Next year, replacing Nagasawa, assuming Bryce Duke stays, they should get a more front point running foreign winger or wide 10 that hits the ball like a Kenny Cunningham or a Nathan Burns type play. However probably to afford that, Walter Scott leaves, Lukas KH leaves.
