Despite losing five successive games, Matthew Rees says Saturday's Test with New Zealand is the ideal fixture for Wales.
"But we don't become a bad team overnight. We've had great success over the last 12-14 months and we've had a bit of a blip. "When you face the world champions in your own back yard, as a player, a team and nation, if you can't get up for that then there is something wrong with you. "We know how good the All Blacks are as a team and as individuals, but we know how good we can be as well. "The whole All Blacks squad, no matter who they pick to play, they are all capable with ball in hand, they can all do a job in the contact area. That makes them the best team in the world. "It is another step up in terms of what we have faced over the last two weeks and it is important for us that we start well in the first 10-15 minutes and make sure we take the game to them. "We have been frustrated with ourselves in terms of the way we have played the last two weeks. We know we are a better team than that. "We have got the best supporters in world rugby and we know everyone will be turning up on Saturday to see us perform. It's up to us to make sure that happens. The supporters deserve it."
