Not sure if this has been done before (if it has, apologies!)
Who do you rate as our most disappointing players in the time you have been following Geelong, and why?
For me, a few that come to mind are:
David Spriggs - relatively high draft pick (i.e. top 20), had the looks and the leg speed, but his decline at Geelong was fairly spectacular.
Mark Blake - like his Dad, I thought - probably more hoped - he would blossom after a few years and become one of the league's best ruckmen. Never happened.
Alan Christensen - the disappointment was not form related but his sudden and unexpected departure. I don't think I know the real reason(s) he left, but can't imagine it / they were not issues that could have been resolved.
