Referees to 28 January

Qualifier moves to Lisbon

Rugby becomes more domestic this weekend except for the vital qualifier in Lisbon and the Trans Tasman warm-ups Down Under. But the onset of Six Nations and Super 14 is in the back of many minds.

With this in mind Kelvin Deaker of Wales has a match in Wales as he has to come out of aestivation.
