London - World Rugby will trial a new Hawk-Eye system to protect player welfare and aid decision making and may adopt it at the 2015 World Cup in England and Wales, the sport's governing body said.
The new system will be tested in selected Pro12 fixtures from next week in a bid to improve and enhance the accuracy of existing television match official (TMO) systems.
Referee's will still direct queries to the TMO but they will have access to an enhanced Hawk-Eye 'SMART Replay' technology which affords them simultaneous angles in slow motion.
