I thought Bond was fantastic during his brief spell as our bowling coach, and he's one of the few commentators that actually come across as having a real deep insight of what's happening rather than reacting after the fact, so I'm hopeful that he'd be a success.

Henry Nicolls really?

It's kind of remarkable that NZC didn't try to line this up with the coaching appointment.

Any thoughts on the new players? Mitch Hay, Muhammad Abbas, Zak Foulkes & Adi Ashok

What gets me is that the incoming coach will be working with players that he has had no say in the selection of in this contract list.
There is also a list of 5 players who received casual contractswhich I'm not sure has been released? From what I understand those players are
Williamson, Conway, Seifert & Allen but I don't know who the other one is. -

That was guaranteed as soon as he stood down from his SA roles in March/April

Would love it if Bond could be our bowling coach again

Why?
There are some players who don't like him and some who really do, it will be interesting how it plays out,And who gets selected.

Interesting. A difficult personality or is he just a coach who has strict standards etc?

He is a typical South African hard nosed but fair.

As a local level observation, they're often the best with the boys who have plenty of talent, but not a lot of focus.
