ANDREW BRACE WILL be the man in the middle when Leinster and Ulster lock horns for a place in the URC semi-finals at the Aviva Stadium next Saturday.
It will be IRFU referee Brace’s 95th league game in charge, and the 35-year-old will be assisted by Craig Evans (WRU), Eoghan Cross (IRFU) and TMO Brian MacNeice (IRFU).
The Cardiff-born Brace, who played international rugby for Belgium, recently took charge of Toulouse’s Champions Cup semi-final victory over Harlequins as well as Munster’s 47-12 victory over Connacht in the URC.
Munster’s own quarter-final against the Ospreys at Thomond Park on Friday night will be refereed by Hollie Davidson (SRU) who will be taking charge of her 14th URC game.
