Age means nothing
Experience is the key
It's no good looking at one without the other
Example, if a team had an average age of 22, but games were pushing 100, a fair correlation would be that the side is in it's window
But if a side recruited older players, age could be up toward 25 with games near 20
Your AFL development begins when you're recruited, not when your born
You age determines how long you could get the best out of yourself (theoretically)
