[QUOTE="Brigantine, post: 1153652, member: 73940"] How does it work in domestic club rugby in multilingual countries? How many languages does the typical club rugby referee speak in South Africa or Hong Kong or Belgium? I remember a video from 2022 of the Saudi (soccer) [I]coach[/I] giving his team a half time speech... via a translator. You would think that international tournaments were well enough resourced to solve any language problems, either by selecting the right referees, or by having a translator on the pitch, or through tech.
