He's talking about the "Goalie Zones", or the area marked by black tape under each set of high goals and bounded by the corners of the one-point goals.
I would mention your "inbounder" should have a blocking extension for blocking shots in the goalie zone.
The three roles as I assumed them were:
The "Goalie"- responsible for the first assist, passing, blocking shots. A good goalie will also be able to truss score.
The "Midfielder"- responsible for the second assist, truss scoring, passing and having a floor pickup. A good midfielder will also be able to catch.
The "Forward"- responsible for the third assist, scoring in both goals, having a floor pickup, and catching. A good forward will have a powerful and maneuverable drivetrain.
We'll see how the game strategy evolves, however. Some team might come up with some crazy 2010 469 strategy that utterly dominates.
I'm quite excited for this year.
