Here is my wish.
The role of a rugby MD who cannot communicate and has no rugby of business intelligence is made redundant and two new posts are created. A commercial chief executive with business intelligence and a rugby chief executive with rugby intelligence. Ruddock takes on this role until AWJ retires and we have a seemless succession. A head coach is appointed who can build an attacking game. Ideally he would have contacts in a market like SA to improve our nwq value. Robbie fleck is a name that comes to mind. Hogg stays as forwards coach and we find a new defence coach. The commercial CEO takes charge off the off field budget and we stop wasting so much money on so many people who offer no value. The social media and advertising around the Cardiff game must have been designed and authorised by imbeciles.
Whole heartedly agree with Fiddlers assessment especially around the issues of Hore and his interpretation of how the region should be run. There was ever a chance of Hore's model ever being working especially when he ran off as things started to go bad. He did the region no good at all and I firmly believe he knew that his model was doomed but gave his loyal followers the driving seat as a goodwill gesture, a leaving gift that saw the demise of everything that was created both good and bad from the original set up.
Not meaning to be insensitive to anyone but we needed a everything from his era to be be burnt away remove all the drift wood and the bad seeds before things can grow again. The embodiment of the Ospreys was created by the financial investment from the likes of Cuddy and a number of other stakeholders, no matter what people's opinions are of them are from the past or present they brought in the depth of rugby players that created the Ospreys culture and brand by bringing in the overseas players like Jerry Collins, Marshall, Tiatai, Marty Holler that established the professionalism and ethos that AWJ, Tips, and others bought into and hopefully under new management will cultivate again. The soul of the region is not lost and can come to life again from the embers if we can keep the likes of Tip's etc with us.
