I agree with Ian Chappell and would prefer Gillespie who has had great success in England with Yorkshire and appears a more rounded individual and less inclined to play favorites and also has a world view on the game.
Langar IMO is more of the same as we got with Lehmann, will be popular with the players and will look after the main core group but wont be so keen to make major changes or look to new talent especially if its from outside WA and more specifically the Perth Scorchers..
It should be Gillespie by some margin, imho.
Langer is a little too close to the establishment and is getting favors at the selection table that make him look better than he really is! If Langer gets the job the Marsh boys will be welded into the team!
The warning signs are things like Langer gets key players released from national duty for local games, but his opposition coach/team don't get the same treatment even if their players sit around as extras on the big stage.
So I suspect it should be Gillespie, but will most likely be Langer.
