Referees to 4 November
There is no rest for rugby referees, no time to put feet up and dose in the sun. So we have referees at many levels for this week as the Northern Hemisphere takes over.
There is a new Test referee this week in action again this week – Andrew MacPherson who will be getting off to Bucharest with two Scottish assistants. We wish them all a happy time. Earlier this year he made his debut in Madrid.
That match is in Division 1 of the European Nations Cup, the so-called Six Nations B. The other match over the weekend is in Madrid.
