No official confirmation but the following are involved in internationals this weekend:

Ireland v Italy: Matthew Carley, Christophe Ridley, Luke Pearce and Tom Foley

France v Wales: Karl Dickson and Ian Tempest.

Scotland Women v France Women: Sara Cox

By my reckoning that leaves Barnes and CMK out of the senior refs.

Was really hoping for Sara Cox - was impressed with her when she reffed our cup match last(?) season, and her handling of other matches, both as ref and assistant.

Only hope it isn't CMK, as he has not impressed me at all since the restart.

Barnes all day for me. CMK just winds me up for some reason.

I doubt they'd have given Sara Cox the job of reffing the final when she hasn't refereed a Premiership match yet...

Apparently they're bringing JP out of retirement so he can have the final as his swansong. :)

Nice try, but he's in Bermuda for the World Tens Series... https://worldtens.com/2020/09/30/jp-doyle-headlines-match-officials/

Actually I was doing some research to decide if it would be worth watching. I concluded it wouldn't be.

Unless the RFU arrange to get back an official or cut a deal to draft in Nigel Owens...
