As I see it the new coach has to fulfill a number of roles:
1. Put into place a modern coaching group including assistant coaches, trainers, conditioners, medical support, analystists etc. and attract top quality support in areas where we lack these.
2. Head up, or at least put into place, the new delevopment center and coordinate that into the Warrior's network.
3. Attract quality players to the club.
4. Actually coach the team.
As I see it of the current coaches being considered only CB can fulfill all these functions. Top players will want to play under CB. Support staff will want to learn under him.
I don't think TS will attract either the players or supports. (Particularly the players if rumours are true.)
Of the others mentioned I don't think any will have the profile necessary to attract the players we want.
It will be false economy if the club balk at CB. Anything less than his appointment will be considered by many as a sign of talk over substance - we want the best but won't pay for the best.
A big challange for the club; get it right and they could really take off, get it wrong again and it will set them, and the game, back quite a long way.
