Referees to 6 November
Southern lands have closed down and gradually the ambitious clubs of the north are getting their big men into action again, and the referees, too, are back home in action.
France's Top 14 has taken an initiative to invite referees from the other Six Nations countries to referee in the Top 14, creating a bigger pool of referees sued to applying the laws in the same way.
