The HOL announcement featured two names that raised eyebrows beyond west Wales.

Former Ospreys, Wales and Lions fly-half Dan Biggar is part of HOL’s sports and entertainment division that is headed up by former Welsh Rugby Union chief executive David Moffett.

Moffett was famously at the helm for the launch of regional rugby and in 2014 sought election to the WRU board with a manifesto for change.

“I would be very naive to say that he wouldn’t be someone that you will hear from because David is a passionate, outspoken person,” admitted Kozlowski.

The chances of Biggar, who made 221 appearances for Ospreys and scored 2,203 points, rocking up to call the shots at Llanelli appear slim.

“The names like Dan Biggar, Andy Golding, David Moffett are playing at a higher level, leading a bigger narrative than just sitting on the daily management of the Scarlets,” continued Kozlowski.

“Dan won’t be sitting in a chair at Scarlets, David won’t be sitting in a chair at Scarlets. They have bigger things to lead and we have got very experienced people to come in and move the needle at a club level.”

Moffett believes that HOL will quickly make an impact in Wales under chief executive Kirsti Jane.

“The owner of HOL is a self-made successful businesswoman who hails from Pontypridd,” Moffett wrote on LinkedIn.

“Her enthusiasm for Welsh rugby is infectious and she wants to help answer the only question going forward, which is ‘what is in the best interests of Welsh rugby as a whole?’.

“I am honoured to be part of her awesome team and we should start to see some positive results in weeks, not months.”
