100% this and wogitalias's posts above. Its not just the total average thats important - it's the average that on field spot has over the entire year.
Yes - we have extra trades this year. However there is a reason (and its not because the HS wants to make it easier).
Covid will be extremely prevalent this year and cause a lot of forced outages (1 week at best, who knows at worst). Thats why we have these extra trades. It's not to be making the 'perfect team' - I expect we will be struggling most weeks to put 18/22 scoring players on the park. All these extra trades and trade boosts will be used to maximise our playing players - not forming a superteam!
The big difference here is that Sicily and Heeney are not in the midfielder line. They only need to improve a bit and are keepers. Cripps needs to increase a lot to become a keeper.
Dunkley, Bont, Neale and Macrae (in order) the big watches tonight for me. Will try to watch most of the game and give thoughts (particularly on the Dogs players) later on.
Really don't know if Berry is going to get the mid time he needs. Most Brisbane fans I saw didn't even have him as a lock in their 22 before the practice game. Neale, Lyons, McCluggage, Bailey, Berry. A lot of mids to fit in at the CBAs.
