Welcome to WRR 255 for July 13-19. On the international stage, we’re catching up on a July 4 clash where Bermuda won over Cayman Islands. Off the pitch, community outrage is boiling over as World Rugby failed to broadcast two top-ten Tests, and our direct requests for answers have been ignored. In other news, pioneering referee Aimee Barrett-Theron announced a pause from officiating to undergo breast cancer treatment. Finally, domestic title races are reaching a climax. Matat? and the Blues locked in the Super Rugby Aupiki final, the Fijian Drua and NSW Waratahs advanced to the Super W decider, and WER delivered a dramatic Round 9 to set up a winner-take-all showdown between TC Gemini and the Bay Breakers.
