       Brilliant appointments, nicely balanced between experienced and
       newbies. First Argentinian involvement for a while. Good to see
       Piardi with a game and Ridley
       Really pleased we have Nika for Ireland game.
       (No Mike Adamson though)
       Hollies D continuing her march towards the next men's WC

       Really interesting set of appointments. WR really working on
       bringing the newbies through quickly with Brousset, Piardi &
       Ridley as part of the refereeing panel. Congrats to all 3
       Surprising that Craig Evans doesn't get the same push as the
       above mentioned.
       Doleman gets a good match (WR moving him up the ranks) after a
       couple of let's say "lesser" matches in previous versions.
       Very clear that WR have lost faith in Mike Adamson & Damon
       Murphy - really not surprising for me and I feel that will be
       the end of their push.
       Frank Murphy also seems to be shelved too.
       Congrats to Davidson on her achievement - well deserved!!
       O Keeffe & Peyper getting rather low-key appointments (meaning
       for me they are trusted and need to help the newbies settle in
       the panel). Seems Peyper will work towards 2027 and will surely
       be favourite for the final if SA miss out.
       For the English lads - plumb appointments for all 3 really with
       WR really pushing Karl getting the opener (and what an opener).
       It seems that the number 1 spot is between Dickson & Carley for
       me with Pearce being slotted down into 3rd spot.
       Amashukeli given a fab appointment (I had him down for the
       Calcutta Cup tbh). Continuing his good set of matches and
       deservedly so!
       Raynal's appointment may seem low-key but on the last weekend -
       could be a deciding match and for me absolutely no surprise that
       Gardner gets the biggie on the last weekend (keeping O Keeffe
       away from France for now).
       Expected appointments for Berry, Williams & Brace.
       I couldn't see who would come onto the AR panel form the
       Southern Hemisphere - Now we certainly have a clear idea which
       is great to see Schneider (who I rate). Ferreira is now going to
       be pushed. Leale & Ramos come in for the NH.
       With limited spaces on this set, it seems that Grove-White,
       Murphy (Aus), Trianini & Jacobs have been sacrificed to allow
       for new AR's to come in. With larger windows in the summer, this
       is not a bad thing.

       Surprised no Mike Adamson but great appointment for Hollie
       Davidson.

       Adamsons stock seems to have fallen a lot in the last year.

       Unfortunately I don't believe he is at the required level (it
       seems WR don't believe he is either). they are focussing on
       Hollie and Sam now with Ben Blain behind them.
       The same with Damon Murphy where WR are looking at Jordan Way.

       Not a big rugby fan but happened to see that Jaco has decided
       (or been forced by injury) to hang up the whistle - best wishes
       to him.

       Good luck to him, never my favourite but a stalwart of World
       Rugby. Shame his last match was one where he had to come off

       A sad way to bow out and not as he would want. Good luck to him
       and his family in the future and I hope he can contribute to
       developing future referees. A much respected referee.
