Referees to 24 November 2019

It is the second round of European Professional Club Rugby's top competitions amongst many other important matches, only one of which is south of the equator.

That one southern match is between the Barbarians and Brazil in Sao Paulo.

There are gaps, despite much trying, which we hope to fill as the week wears on.
