Match official amendment: Wales v Georgia

World Rugby has confirmed a change to the match officials for the Wales v Georgia match at the Stade de la Beaujoire in Nantes on 7 October.

James Doleman (New Zealand) replaces Ben O'Keeffe (New Zealand) as assistant referee for this Rugby World Cup 2023 Pool B match.

The change has been made as a precaution given O'Keeffe is refereeing the Japan v Argentina match at 13:00 at the same venue the following day.

The updated appointments are:

Referee: Mathieu Raynal (France)
Assistant referee 1: James Doleman (New Zealand)
Assistant referee 2: Pierre Brousset (France)
TMO: Brendon Pickerill (New Zealand)
