Referees to January 27
The IRB's Sevens Series gets going again, this time in Las Vegas, Nevada which may just be more famous for things other than rugby.
The quarterfinalists of the Heineken Cup and the Amlin Cup, after much tension, have been decided. The quarterfinals will take place in April
But the LV= Cup is in action this weekend. That is the new (sponsored) name for the Anglo-Welsh competition.
Please note that in some of the South African matches the two-referee system will be used. It will be used in the Varsity Cup in 2014.
