31 Oct-3 Nov: Autumn international & other referee, AR & TMO appointments

The Autumn international series picks up some steam, albeit with outside the formal window opening. Angus Gardner (pictured top left) is in Twickenham for the Eng v All Blacks tie. Japanese referee Takehito Namekawa (top right) is in Ireland as a second string All Blacks take on Munster who parted company with their head coach this week. And Craig Evans has the other match up in Scotland as they host the Fijians. There’s also a couple of Rugby Europe internationals too. Outside of that, the Top14 and ProD2 continue for another week before they break for the international window. They hand two matches to international referees with Nic Berry in La Rochelle for their match with Stade Francais match we believe Reuben Keane may have the other match in Castre, but that’s not confirmed.

There’s only one match left in the southern hemisphere with a Heartlands XV taking on an NZ Barbarians XV. Stu Curran referees that one before he heads off for his off season.

Around the north, we have the Hong Kong China women’s prem and a whole phlanx of domestic action around England, Scotland, Portugal (Paulo Duarte, bottom left, on Prem Championship), Netherlands (Katherine Richie, bottom right refs RC ‘t Gooi v RC DIOK) and in Dubai.

Enjoy your weekend
