Gil Evans
Gil Evans took charge of England v New Zealand in 1905 and Wales v Australia in 1908. He was from Swansea, but refereed out of England from the Midland Counties and Birmingham Societies. He played for Swansea in 1892 and was a highly respected referee who got good mentions from the All Blacks in 1905 and did a number of their games in Wales.
