There are plenty of talented players who take a long time to become really good.
Hawkins, Hansen, Goddard, Steve J, Griffen, Mundy, Westhoff - the last three taking until they were 26-28 to hit peak.
Hell at 23 Ablett was still a flashy forward pocket and Jobe was a turnover merchant.
People wanted Nathan Jones traded before 2012.
Even Gibbs... now he's playing good footy people try to tell me 'he was never soft', I just laugh.
Funnily enough if Gibbs goes back to being average next season he'll be called soft and lazy again.
One of the funniest for me is Hawkins, he plays about 80 games as a pretty average player then explodes and people go around talking like he was always a champ.
