Hard to find any weakness in an All Blacks team - Warren Gatland

Wales head coach Warren Gatland is wary of the challenges that lie ahead during their upcoming tour of New Zealand in this month.

Gatland's men are scheduled to play three Tests in New Zealand from 11th June and it won't be an easy task for Wales considering they are yet to register a Test victory against the All Blacks in New Zealand after playing seven games previously.

Even in the overall record, Wales have managed to win just three out of their 30 games against the All Blacks, who won the remaining 27 matches.

This will be the first time, Wales will be taking on a New Zealand side without their former captain Richie McCaw and star fly-half Dan Carter over a decade but Gatland believes the All Blacks are still a tough opponent to beat.

"Sometimes there are young, exciting, talented players coming through who are a little bit inexperienced.

"What you might say is weakness is players potentially on their way up, not as experienced as some other players who left.

"There is definitely real quality there. There isn't going to be weakness, there are going to be players who haven't had the same time together in the same combinations.

"If that's perceived as weakness take it how you like, but there is never any weak All Black team as far as I'm concerned."

Apart from McCaw and Carter, All Blacks will also miss the services of Sonny Bill Williams, who is now working with the Sevens squad to compete in the Olympics while Ma'a Nonu and Conrad Smith are busy with their French commitments.

New Zealand are known to be slow starters in a series as seen in the Rugby World Cup 2015 during their encounter against Georgia and Gatland is hoping to capitalise on that.

"It's going to be tough, but we're not here just to make up the numbers, and we're not here to start the rebuilding phase of New Zealand rugby either.

"We've looked at when the All Blacks have been rusty and I've said to our players to have a look at the Georgia game at the 2015 World Cup in Cardiff.

"There were a lot of mistakes made and they were obviously ring-rusty. They got better as the tournament went along.

"We've just got to go out there and make sure we start well and play well and stay in the fight against them. We know how dangerous they are, but like every team when you put them under pressure hopefully there is some small hint of vulnerability."
