Two Welshmen have received the accolade of being the top rugby referee in the world: they have refereed a World Cup final. They've not only served the game that they love, but contributed to its development and appeal over many decades. They're also great friends and two really funny men! That's what we see here on these pages as they share their experiences on and off the field. When Derek stopped refereeing, he became Nigel's coach. He then served as Nigel's Television Match Official for many seasons. Here they share stories of the game from their point of view: the global travel and village rugby, making difficult decisions and surviving the times when things aren't going so well, and all those World Cups, of course!
