The Six Nations is hurtling towards an epic conclusion, and the officials for Super Saturday have been confirmed. With tensions running high, the man in the middle could be the difference between glory and despair.
Here’s who will be calling the shots in the final round of action.

Italy v Ireland – Luke Pearce takes centre stage

The Stadio Olimpico will see Luke Pearce (England) with the whistle, as Ireland look to finish their campaign on a high. He’ll be backed up by Angus Gardner (Australia) and Morné Ferreira (South Africa) on the touchlines, while Andrew Jackson (England) watches the replays as TMO. Tual Trainini (France) rounds out the officiating team.

Who is Luke Pearce?

Born in Wales but representing England, Luke Pearce has been a top-level referee for over a decade. Known for his clear communication and willingness to let the game flow, Pearce has officiated numerous international matches, including Rugby World Cup fixtures and high-profile Six Nations clashes.

Wales v England – Nic Berry in the hot seat

A blockbuster clash in Cardiff will be overseen by Nic Berry (Australia), as Wales and England lock horns in what promises to be an intense battle. Nika Amashukeli (Georgia) and Hollie Davidson (Scotland) will be running the lines, with Mike Adamson (Scotland) on TMO duties. Eric Gauzins (France) takes the role of FPRO.
Expect fireworks as Berry takes charge of this fierce rivalry.

He transitioned into refereeing and quickly rose through the ranks, becoming one of Australia’s leading officials. His playing background gives him a deep understanding of the game, making him a respected figure on the pitch.

France v Scotland – Matthew Carley with the whistle

The final game of the tournament sees Matthew Carley (England) officiate as France take on Scotland. He’ll be assisted by fellow Englishman Karl Dickson and Irish referee Eoghan Cross. South Africa’s Marius van der Westhuizen will handle TMO responsibilities, while Ian Tempest (England) steps in as FPRO.

Who is Matthew Carley?
