Referees to 23 September 2012
There is no Test match this week. There was one scheduled in the Viking Tri-Nations, but that has been cancelled. The Shute Shield has ended in Australia, won by Sydney University, but the Eccellenza starts up in Italy.
The match between Zebre and Ulster has been postponed, following the sad deaths of the three Spenece men in a farming accident.
