The last three years, we have drafted in players from other clubs. Now, I have not had a problem with anyone we got in (although I found Aaron Black a bit of a surprise selection by the club), but I have been excited about getting in players like Dangerfield, Touhy or Ablett.
But is there a player on an AFL list that you pray that we don't get, either because you just don't like him, or you think he is a complete and utter spud?
I remember Chris Scott a couple of seasons ago waxing lyrical about maybe getting Hayden Ballantyne from Fremantle to the Cats. I would not want Ballantyne, as I cannot stand him, and even playing for us, I can't see that changing. Also, he was terrible in the 2013 GF, and the last thing we need is another player who struggles in finals. So I am glad that we never got him.
Is there any player who you would just refuse to accept playing for us, and could never warm to having him at the club? Who would send chills down your spine if he nominated Geelong as his destination club, and would make you scream "DO NOT WANT!"? Also, explain why you don't want this particular player?
