The referee appointments for Round #14 of the 2019 Super Rugby season are now confirmed.
The six-match Round 14 kicks-off in Wellington as the red-hot Hurricanes host the Jaguares in a match that will be refereed by Brendon Pickerill. The same evening Argentinean Federico Anselmi [pictured] will have the whistle for the intriguing Rebels versus Bulls match in Melbourne, as the hosts will be keen to maintain momentum in the Aussie Conference.
On Saturday in Auckland, the Blues will be desperate to win to stay in the Finals race as they host the Chiefs who are also in the same position and fighting for a wildcard Finals spot. Glen Jackson will be the referee for that match, while Ben O'Keeffe will be in the middle in Brisbane for the pivotal Aussie derby between old foes the Reds and Waratahs who lie third and fourth in their conference.
Rasta Rasivhenge will be in Johannesburg where the Lions host the Highlanders while the weekend closes in Cape Town on Saturday afternoon where the Stormers host the high-flying Crusaders knowing that a victory is required to ensure they also stay in touch for the Finals as they currently lie 5th in their conference.
