Wayne Barnes will break the record for most Aviva Premiership Rugby matches refereed on Friday when he takes charge of Worcester Warriors’ home clash with London Irish.

Barnes, 38, currently sits atop the all-time list alongside Chris White on 190 matches refereed in English rugby’s top League, the latter having set the mark between 1997 and 2011.

But at Sixways on Friday Barnes will move out on his own and Premiership Rugby Rugby Director Phil Winstanley offered his and the League’s thanks.

He said: “This weekend Wayne will receive many well-deserved plaudits from across the game and all of these are fully deserved.”

“In the last 15 years Wayne has arguably become the number one referee in world rugby and we’re fortunate to have Wayne plying his trade in the Aviva Premiership each week.”

“He has travelled the world for many years officiating Premiership, European and International rugby yet the quality and level of performance rarely waivers.”

“He’s an extremely consistent performer and has been over many years, and he is held in high regard by players and coaches alike.”

“Whilst he will may soon notch up 191 Premiership Rugby fixtures on Friday night, you can see on match days that he has lost none of retained his enthusiasm over the years and thoroughly enjoys what he does and I’m sure that there are many more appearances to come yet.”

Hello netizens, I'm writing to detail a serious incident involving the illicit transfer of my ETH cryptocurrency from my wallet. This unauthorized transaction, executed without my consent or awareness, strongly suggested a sophisticated hacking or phishing attack on me. The immediate transfer of funds to an unidentified digital address necessitated swift action. I immediately engaged RUDER CYBER TECH SLEUTHS, a premier cybersecurity firm, to investigate and reclaim my stolen Ethereum. RUDER CYBER TECH SLEUTHS's thorough examination pinpointed the exact time and origin IP address of the unauthorized transfer. Remarkably, within hours of their involvement, my Ethereum was restored to my digital wallet. Beyond the successful recovery, RUDER CYBER TECH SLEUTHS significantly bolstered my online security and my household.

Crusaders prepare for 'dangerous in all elements' Chiefs game-breaker

I had always been cautious about online investments, but when I came across an opportunity promising high returns, I let my guard down. The website looked professional, the testimonials seemed legitimate, and the support team assured me my money was safe. I invested a significant amount, hoping to secure my financial future. At first, everything seemed fine. My account balance grew, and I was even able to withdraw small amounts. Encouraged, I reinvested a larger sum. That’s when the problems began. Suddenly, my withdrawal requests were ignored, customer support stopped responding, and my account was locked. It hit me—I had fallen victim to a sophisticated online scam. Feeling helpless, I searched for solutions. Traditional banks couldn’t help, and law enforcement advised me to be cautious in the future but offered little hope of recovery. That’s when I stumbled upon Galaxy Ethical Tech, a company specializing in ethical financial recovery using advanced AI and blockchain tracking.I reached out to them, skeptical but desperate. Their response was swift and professional. After verifying my case, they used their AI-driven forensic tracking to analyze blockchain transactions, uncovering the fraudsters’ network. Their experts collaborated with cybersecurity teams and legal authorities, using ethical hacking to trace my funds.Weeks later, I received an email that changed everything: “We have successfully retrieved a significant portion of your lost funds.” I couldn’t believe it. Shortly after, the money was deposited back into my account.Galaxy Ethical Tech not only helped me reclaim my lost investment but also educated me on how to avoid such scams in the future. Thanks to them, I regained my financial stability—and my trust in ethical technology. If you ever find yourself in a similar situation, remember: the right technology, used ethically, can turn losses into second chances.contact them via Email: galaxyethicaltech@mail.comWhatsapp: +15072712442Telegram: Galaxy_ethical_tech
