The referee appointments for Round #15 of the 2019 Super Rugby season are now confirmed.

The seven-match Round 14 kicks-off in Hamilton where Angus Gardner will be in charge for the Chiefs versus Reds Trans-Tasman clash. The same evening Jaco Peyper will referee the Brumbies versus Bulls clash in Canberra when the number one teams from the Australian and South Africa Conferences meet.

There are five matches on Saturday with proceedings starting in Tokyo where the Sunwolves face the Rebels who are desperate to get back to winning ways after poor recent form.  Nick Briant will be in charge, while fellow Kiwi referee Mike Fraser has the whistle for the NZ Conference derby between the Crusaders and Blues in Christchurch. In Sydney the Waratahs play at the new Bankwest Stadium in Parramatta against the in-form Jaguares who beat the Hurricanes last round to grab a share of the South African Conference lead. Paul Williams is the referee.

The weekend closes with two matches in Africa. The Stormers host the Highlanders in Cape Town in a must-win match for both teams with Australian Nic Berry in Charge. The final match sees an all South African clash between the Sharks and Lions who sit fourth and third respectively in the conference with much to play for.
