MIKE Adamson has been confirmed as the referee for Saturday’s Guinness Pro 14 final between Munster and Leinster.
The 36-year-old will become the first Scotsman to take charge of a Pro 14 final when he takes to the field in the RDS this weekend.
He is no stranger to the big occasion having overseen the game between the sides in the 2019 semi-final, before lining out as assistant in the final the following week.
