Kretz

Agree kretzschmaria is probably main pathogen, the black lines (pseudosclerotial plates) and lack of obvious decay evident on sounding is indicative. the wood associated with the tap root will have been "eaten" by another fungi.

Salt and the inevitable grass cutter damage won't have helped.

Probably and something else from those black lines (pseudo schlerotic plates?) was entry from that bark damage showing compensatory wound occlusion at the bottom of the photo?

Looks to have occluded quite a few wounds in it's time, entry will probably have been from one of those.
