Referees for NZ warm-ups
Already Super Rugby is on the minds of management and friendly matches are being arranged – with referees.
The Highlanders of New Zealand's deep south have three matches organised and another in the process of being organised. They would hope to have a team when the competitions kicks oiff!
New Zealand have not only organised matches but have even appointed referees.
Where two referees are appointed, they will referee a half each.
