Frenchman Garces to ref Wales v Boks

Cape Town - Another Frenchman will be in charge of a Springbok Test when the South Africans tackle Wales in Cardiff on Saturday.

Romain Poite was in charge of the whistle in last week’s 35-6 win over Italy in Padova and this week his French compatriot Jerome Garces will referee the Test at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.

Garces will be assisted by England’s Wayne Barnes and Ireland’s Frank Murphy, while England’s Rowan Kitt will be the television match official.
