As many, many hours of my misspent adult life have been taken up reading the volumes of passionate discussion on this site, it occurred to me that there are enough "diamond in the rough" suggestions/ideas that I would like our match committe to at least pass a cursory glance over. I know that we are mere mortals and that we don't have intimate knowledge of the intricate workings inside a football club but sometimes an inner sanctum can lose its situational awareness and miss something staring right at them. My proposition is this: If anyone on this site is close to anyone on match committee, would it be possible to agenda 15 minutes a week at their meetings an item titled, "What are the supporters thinking?" They may dismiss or laugh at 99% of our suggestions (POSITIVE ONLY) but you never know, there may have been that 1% they didn't consider. In summary, I would like this thread to remain POSITIVE, NON JUDGMENTAL, CONCISE and RATIONAL. By all means, if you agree with someone else, endorse their suggestion. Please do not ridicule someone's suggestion.....it is not what this thread is about
I'll begin
I believe Jarryd Waite may become a sensational winger if given the opportunity
I believe SetantaO'Hailpin will make a good fullback if left there permanently

We discussed something like this with Stephen and Mark last year and had a couple of threads running with ideas, more of an off field basis though.

I'm not sure how much was taken on board as it was just after the elections and they were extremely busy just keeping the club running.

This has merit.

I mean, one of our posters already supplies plenty of feedback to a member of our recruiting department via this website, and that seems to be going well...

Maybe we could assemble 1,000 of our greatest and brightest supporters and convene at PP for a think tank.

I think in 2014 we'll be saying that Waite is on the verge of becoming an elite footballer.

That's just because you see the world in black and white, binary boy. Or should that be dark navy blue and white?

When Collingwood assemble 1000 of their greatest supporters they used to call it Pentridge Prison, when they assembled there 1000 brightest they called it the Kew Asylum.
