As JD said.

I think the NZF thing is more to do with them making an effort, or more accuretly stop making an effort to counter the Phoenix.  Hay and Zorocich pressuring kids to go to their schools instead of the Phoenix, including the Phoenix in planning around developement, maybe even just include the Phoenix in the NZF awards even as guests.  

It wouldn't be hard for NZ football to do more, it would be difficult for them to do less.

Nah. He specifically requested from NZF "leadership", and action (unspecified), and soon, rather than "strategy". But what?

Sorry the Nix are a professional football club ( a business ) they shouldn't be depending on NZF to do anything for them. Does the English FA contribute in any way to Chelsea or Arsenal etc?

Correspondingly what do Chelsea or Arsenal contribute to English football?  It's not like either of them are swimming in English players is it?  I understand the point you are trying to make but the value that the Phoenix offer to NZ Football vs what individual clubs offer to the English FA really isn't commensurate.
