I think all three parties are guilty (Jitka, players and NZF).

The Ferns have been gash for ages. The last four coaches have all achieved squat. Jitka and Mayne are clearly not good enough but then neither were a lot of the 100 cap club.

To this day I think Heraf told players some home truths and the inflated egos of some of the players did not like being told those home truths. 
He handled the media poorly but then he was new to NZ and the Anglophile world as a whole. 
I see his way of talking all the time in my place of employment. I have male and female colleagues from all over Europe, the Americas and the Middle East who likewise struggle with Anglophile ways of saying and doing things. This causes friction in a British business at times but we build bridges to surmount them. Someone NZF should learn to do the same.

I like the idea of no Ferns games for a while. That has helped the AWs at times too when coaches/NZF (NZS etc) have fudgeed things up.
