Top Welsh referee Nigel Owens is set to take charge of his third Heineken Cup final in five years, but the WRU's national referees academy is ensuring there are plenty more whistlers aspiring to emulate his achievements.

Wales caretaker head coach Rob Howley has announced his training squad for the Barbarians clash and tour of Australia, which includes four uncapped players.

Wales may have claimed the Bowl at Twickenham in the final round of the HSBC Sevens World Series, but as captain Rhys Shellard explains, their expectations going in the last event of the year were much higher.
