"I would prefer not to scratch Warren Gatland's thoughts, yet to be the best you must play the best and they (New Zealand) are absolutely up there with the best. 

"You then, at that point, put your business cap on. It's sold-out and we could most likely sell it out once more. As far as monetary commitment for the year, it's in a general sense significant. 

"It then, at that point, reserves the game and it's a virtual circle. 

"It's incredible information to have them (New Zealand) coming here. It's incredible monetarily and industrially it's extraordinary for our image. In a real sense everything is sold out – each ticket and each cordiality space.

"We manage job very well with our Six Nations accomplices so as far as the best deal anticipating the pre-winter series, it came from Amazon. What I'm truly satisfied with is they are perceiving the Welsh language with the speculation they've placed into it. 

"I acknowledge there are a many individuals who don't care for it's not allowed to-air, but rather that is an alternate discussion to the Welsh language piece since what we are attempting to do is guarantee there is equivalent unmistakable quality between the English and the Welsh."
