Super League refereeing appointments as Ben Thaler given marquee gig with two other big names absent

Another round of Super League fixtures are upon us and the games are now coming thick and fast.

The action starts tonight when Huddersfield Giants travel to Headingley to take on an in-form Leeds Rhinos with Rohan Smith hoping his side will cement their place in the play-offs.

Wind the clock forward to tomorrow and four games will be taking place including the Sky Sports special of the French derby between Toulouse Olympique and Catalans Dragons with the former desperately needing a win.

Wakefield Trinity will host Hull KR on the same night at Belle Vue, whilst Warrington Wolves will go head to head with the Castleford Tigers at the Halliwell Jones Stadium.

Last but not least, Salford Red Devils will take on Hull FC at the AJ Bell Stadium with Wigan Warriors and St Helens rounding off this batch of fixtures on Friday night, live on Sky Sports.

But, who will be officiating those games?
