Referees to 29 October
More qualifiers
Domestic rugby ended in New Zealand on Saturday with three finals, but that is not a year's end by any means.
This weekend there will be World Cup qualifiers and then the invasion of Europe begins.
All three of the qualifiers are crucial to the countries' hopes, for each one of the six countries is still in the running to go to France.
In the case of Morocco and Nambia it is a straight fight between the two. The winner goes to France.
The four European teams involved are looking for a way to France via répechage.
