Weekend two of the 2019 Guinness Six Nations for the men’s, women’s and U20s, and the referees are in position and ready for action. Mathieu Raynal referees his third 6 Nations match, this time in Italy who host Wales. The vastly experienced Romain Poite and Nigel Owens whistle the other two mens matches.
Tim Baker has had the longest trip, over from Hong Kong to referee the England Women v France Women match in Doncaster.
We also have the match officials for America Rugby Championship, the Major League Rugby referees, the Premiership Cup semi finals and the Greene King RFU Championship
Enjoy the weekend, whatever you may be watching or refereeing!
