Peyper to ref Currie Cup final
Jaco Peyper will referee his fourth Currie Cup Final in seven seasons when DHL Western Province host the Cell C Sharks at DHL Newlands in Cape Town on Saturday at 16h00
Saturday’s final match of the season in the Currie Cup Premier Division – sponsored by Nashua and DirectAxis Financial Services – will be the third consecutive Currie Cup Final appointment for the 38-year-old Peyper.
