Referees to 29 June 2014
The international window has slammed shut. The north has holidays and in the south Super Rugby starts up again.
It is Super Rugby without the South African teams as the Springboks have an extra match – against Scotland in Port Elizabeth – weakened Springboks against weakened Scots. Such is the result of having so many Tests that they become devalued.
