England will have three referees in next autumn's World Cup finals with the 28-year-old Wayne Barnes joining Chris White and Tony Spreadbury. The split is seven-five in favour of the northern hemisphere, although Scotland and Italy will only be providing touch-judges for the showpiece.
France's referee, Joel Jutge, will take charge of England's crucial meeting against South Africa in Paris on September 14. Jutge is the solitary French official named among a 12-strong list of referees to officiate. The panel is completed by the Welshman Nigel Owens, Australian Stuart Dickinson, Irish pair Alain Rolland and Alan Lewis, New Zealanders Steve Walsh and Paul Honiss, plus the South African duo of Jonathan Kaplan and Marius Jonker. England's three other pool games - against the United States, Samoa and Tonga - will be controlled by Kaplan, Lewis and Rolland, respectively.Telegraph Rugby Section
