Read an interesting article by dermie some years back saying he thought he played his best very earlier in his career. It was his view the body is done by 25. Also heard an interview when i was in adelaide earlier this yr from warren tredrea who thought at 28 the next two yrs would be his prime. Unfortunately his knee injury has brought his decline forward a little quicker then it might of been, as it would of been interesting to see how much more he had in the tank as he was a late developer. Another late developer is Barry Hall although its difficult to tell as the leading type CHF's like Hall and Tredrea are especially more reliant on good delivery than the more damaging contested CHF's. Hall is much improved in this area though.
When we look at the two gun CHF's atm pavlich and brown both appear to have injuries that are going to take their toll. There was also a post on the adelaide board by a poster called crow-mo who thought their best was under 24. Personally i think the agility is the most important aspect to keep and that starts to go at 28-30, so i would say their prime in in the 25-28 range. Teams like freo and Brisbane who be weary that they don’t want to waste their guns best yrs right now you’d think.
