Referees to 18 February 2013

It's a quiet weekend - the quiet before the storm to be followed by Six Nations, European Nations Cup and the outbreak of Super Rugby.

Super Rugby starts with two matches in Australia. Because of the British & Irish Lions' tour to Australia, the Australian conference will start before the other two.

The Community Cup starts in South Africa - a competition for non-university clubs.
