Referees to 29 August

The Tri-Nations moves from Johannesburg to Pretoria this weekend where Alain Rolland will referee his second match in this year’s Tri-Nations.

On Tuesday there is the second round of the Women’s World Cup.

New Zealand’s Heartland Championship starts and there is an interesting referee making his provincial debut – Glen Jackson, once a top player, now on his way to being a top referee.

In Wales the Premiership starts.
