I backed it with the ages of the Brownlow winners,just because it is of yours a one other that the brownlow is a bad example,that can be your views.

any one with half a brain knows that a player with 3 to 4 preseason and a between 70 to 100 games would be considered to be coming into there peak age .drafted at 18 plus three to four preseasons player a is 21/22 years of age, so maybe I could change view to 23 to 27 .

18 to 22 development
23 to 27 peak
28 to 32 veteran

and you have never once backed your view just judged mine .I believe that I have been more than willing to give you a answer.
To start with, I largely agree with your view of development/peak/veteran. But I don't think the Brownlow means that much, because like others have said that really applies to the midfield whereas KP players can peak later (Cox, Glass as examples).

To be honest, we're just debating semantics here anyway, as words like "development", "peak" and "veteran" mean different things for different roles and players.

"Should you sub too?"

What are the main knocks on Nelson that saw him overlooked last year? Every time I've watched him I've been impressed, although I didn't go to a lot of WAFL games this year.
Height/ size. That was what i thought anyway. But TBH i think there might be something else like he interviewed poorly or something because most people where baffled he didn't even get taken as a rookie last year.

I still don't get why we didn't rookie Nelson last year. Players who were rated early, but fall down the draft order due to sickness/injury or discipline issues are the guys we should be targeting with our rookie picks. High risk, high reward.

Knightmare now has Lowrie and Rodda in the 50's. Would love to somehow end up with both of them, and Nelson. Someone like Kent is likely to be around that sort of range aswell.
