Referee: Callum Straw (Wakefield)
In the past when we have had him as a referee I've normally mentioned that he is very highly rated. And you can tell that I was right because earlier this season he got his first Championship match - Batley v Sheffield in June. Last week got the French trip for Toulouse v Keighley. Has at some stage also refereed Leigh Miners as you can tell from this picture:

Current Referee of the Year in the Wakefield Society. Previous Oxford games:
27/06/2015 - Oxford 24 Coventry 20 (penalties 9-5 against)

23/08/2015 - South Wales 26 Oxford 40 (penalties 9-8 in favour).
12/09/2015 - Oxford 12 Oldham 76 (penalties 10-3 against)
24/01/2016 - Doncaster 54 Oxford 4 (penalties 9-4 against). Pre-season game.
03/04/2016 - Keighley 54 Oxford 14 (penalties 9-8 against). League 1 Cup quarter-final.
In his spare time he is a student and known for trying to burn down the kitchen.

Touch Judge: Tom Mather (Southern)
Was on duty for both of our games at Maidenhead earlier this season but we've not seen him since. Before that used to be a regular visitor. Had an eye on potential travel as one of the elite officials for the Rugby League European Federation. He's second from the left in the front row:


Touch Judge: Simon Ellis (Dewsbury and Batley)
Last seen last week as a touch judge in the Coventry game. Dewsbury and Batley Referee of The Year for 2015. This is a picture I should have posted last week as it shows him (on the right) with Joe Stearne who was the other touch judge last week:


Reserve Referee: Joe Turner (Castleford and Featherstone)
First known Oxford game. Junior referee of the year in Castleford (which is quite an achievement as they have lots and lots of referees compared to everywhere else). He's second from the left in the front row of this picture. See who else you can recognise:


Match Commissioner: Andy Barnby
Last seen at our home game against Barrow in Cheltenham in 2015. Is from the Gloucestershire area and appears to split time refereeing on the dark side.
