Revised match official appointments announced


Injury means Chris White will not take charge of Ireland v Italy this weekend

The International Rugby Board has confirmed that England’s Chris White has withdrawn from refereeing Saturday’s opening RBS Six Nations match between Ireland and Italy at Croke Park.

The Englishman, who was a key member of the Rugby World Cup 2007 referee panel, has been ruled out owing to a minor calf injury and will be replaced by South Africa’s Jonathan Kaplan.

“It is a blow for Chris to be missing the opening game of the Championship through injury. However, it is not serious, we will be monitoring his progress and we hope to see him back to full fitness in a couple of weeks in order to perform his other Championship appointments,” said IRB Referee Manager Paddy O’Brien.

Amended 2008 RBS Six Nations Match Official Appointments (Jan 2008)

White’s withdrawal means that there are also changes to the Championship Touch Judge appointments. Wayne Barnes will take White’s place for France versus Ireland on February 9, while Nigel Owens comes in for the Englishman for Ireland versus Scotland on February 23.

The two further changes made to the Touch Judge appointments announced last October are Peter Allan replacing the recently retired Malcolm Changleng for Wales against Italy on February 23, while David Changleng has been added to the Ireland versus Italy fixture this weekend.

Hope everything works out for Paul Honiss


***********************************************************


he International Rugby Board has announced that Test referee Paul Honiss has withdrawn from refereeing this Sunday’s RBS Six Nations match between Scotland and France at Murrayfield.

The New Zealander, who was a key member of the Rugby World Cup 2007 referee panel, has withdrawn due to a serious family illness and is heading back to New Zealand.

Ireland’s very experienced referee Alain Rolland will now take charge of the Murrayfield Test. Rolland is one of the world’s top referees having refereed the Rugby World Cup 2007 final in Paris last October.

The change is a straight referee swap and does not affect the appointments of the other match officials. Touch Judge 1 is Bryce Lawrence (New Zealand), Touch Judge 2 is Taizo Hirabayashi (Japan) and the TMO is Chris White (England).
