Yes. Several. Regardless he is the incumbent with a year to run on his contract, no doubt an extensive review will hopefully identify the issues that undermined this seasons campaign, poor pre-season and start being an obvious one.


Do you think Cashmere's Chatham Cup run had a negative impact on poor early season Canterbury form?
Given the history of poor starts by CU I would say not, more an issue of KB not deciding on his squad until part way through the season as he looks to land bigger fish. Compounded by some players not committing until they've seen what Auckland, Wellington, Napier are offering. Which makes it tough on any coach. More an issue of being a summer league following on from a winter league, same for all franchises and causes some quality players to bypass the ASB Prem. Talk of returning to a winter league or mothballing players over the winter - some, not all.
