French referee Alibert moves up to replace Klein in Super League
Super League will have a French referee next season, with the promotion of Thierry Alibert to the full-time panel. Alibert, from Toulouse, replaces Ashley Klein, who has returned home to continue his career in Australia. Alibert has already refereed in the competition, as well as internationally, including the recent World Cup.
Warrington's new signings, Garreth Carvell and Mickey Higham, will make their debuts in the pre-season friendly against Hull KR next Thursday, while Oldham will replace Rochdale Hornets against Leigh in their friendly at their new ground on Sunday.
