Rugby League
Colin Morris, a senior referee, has been removed from one of this weekend's Super League games as a disciplinary measure by the Rugby Football League. The Huddersfield official, who twice in the last fortnight had sent off a player subsequently found not guilty by the RFL's Disciplinary Committee, is being replaced by the Wigan official, Peter Taberner, for Sunday's Derwent Park match between the bottom side Workington Town and Oldham Bears.
The Bradford Bulls forwards Bernard Dwyer and James Lowes will make their international debuts in Ireland's against Scotland at Partick Thistle's Firhill Ground on Tuesday.
