New Zealand’s Ben O’Keeffe will take charge of England vs South Africa at the 2023 Rugby World Cup 1xbet
It promises to be a tense match in a rematch of the 2019 final, and this is the 34-year-old’s second tournament, having taken charge of three pool games as the youngest on-field official four years ago in Japan 1xbet
Born in Blenheim on New Zealand’s South Island, O’Keeffe started refereeing at the age of 19 and stepped up into the professional ranks five years later 1xbet
He was elevated to a first international fixture in 2015 as an assistant, before a refereeing debut in June 2016 overseeing a draw 1xbet between Samoa and Japan 1xbet
A three-time recipient of the New Zealand referee of the year award, O’Keeffe was selected to take charge of the second British and Irish Lions test in South Africa in 2021, before making the 12-strong list of referees for this year’s World Cup 1xbet
A qualified ophthalmologist, O’Keeffe’s brother Michael represented New Zealand at the London Olympics and is now a 1xbet sports reporter 1xbet

First came the crack in Alexander Volkanovski‘s defence 1xbet
Then, the crack in his voice 1xbet
If the first crack was consequential, allowing Islam Makhachev to skim his shin off the Australian’s head, the latter was a consequence in itself – a consequence of one of the best fighters alive staying silent on his struggles with mental health 1xbet
That is, until now 1xbet
Volkanovski would have emerged from UFC 294 with credit anyway; he stepped in on 11 days’ notice and moved up in weight to challenge a man who had beaten him eight months prior 1xbet
Even in this surprising, first-round defeat by Makhachev, Volkanovski lost very little 1xbet
His featherweight title still rests firmly on his shoulder, and he will soon return to that weight class where he has been unbeatable 1xbet
But soon may be too soon 1xbet
In his post-fight press conference, Volkanovski began the dissection of this defeat – his second this year, but just his third as a professional mixed martial artist, with his first having occurred a long decade ago 1xbet
The 35-year-old started to dissect the technical reasons for this knockout loss, but it soon became apparent what was of greater importance: the psychological reasons for his presence in Abu Dhabi 1xbet
“He’s not somebody you should be taking a short-notice [fight] with, but I needed it,” Volkanovski began 1xbet
“Obviously a lot of people will say it’s for the money and all that, but it was much more than that 1xbet
It is hard, it is really hard for athletes 1xbet
1xbet
1xbet
Sorry, um 1xbet
1xbet
1xbet
I never thought I would struggle with it,” he continued, ignoring the blood over his eye, instead wiping a tear from beneath it 1xbet
“But for some reason when I wasn’t fighting or in camp 1xbet
1xbet
1xbet
F***, sorry,” he said, attempting a laugh, looking away and to the ceiling, then gently rapping his hand on the table to bring himself back into the room 1xbet

“I needed a fight, and this opportunity came up 1xbet
I’ll be honest: I wasn’t training as much as I should have, but I thought I had to do it 1xbet
I had to take it 1xbet
I’m telling myself, ‘It’s meant to be 1xbet
’ I was struggling a little bit not fighting, doing my head in 1xbet
I don’t know how; everything’s fine, I’ve got a beautiful family 1xbet
But, I don’t know 1xbet
1xbet
1xbet
I think you just need to keep busy 1xbet
I need to be in camp, otherwise, I’m going to do my head in 1xbet
“It’s weird, [it’s not that I] never ‘believed in that stuff’, but I never got it 1xbet
It was something that – I don’t know – maybe the more and more I learn about myself, the more I understand 1xbet
I talked about us having a smile on my face, me and my wife 1xbet
My wife could see it does get hard, I don’t know why 1xbet
”Makhachev consoles Volkanovski after their fight, the main event of UFC 294 (AP)Volkanovski pointed to the birth of his third child, in August, and surgery on an injury this summer as reasons why he had not been training 1xbet
Clearly, the knock-on effect of those moments – as joyous as the former seemed to be – has led Volkanovski’s mental health to suffer 1xbet
Last week, all the talk was of how brave the Australian was to face Makhachev on short notice; braver was this admission that he is struggling, which simultaneously offers a different lens through which to view his choice to fight 1xbet
Keeping himself engaged and busy is healthy, but that is complicated by the inherent risk in his profession 1xbet
“Maybe it was just a silly decision under the circumstances,” he admitted 1xbet
Perhaps it was, though it was also understandable 1xbet
Volkanovski’s next challenge, however, will come outside of the ring 1xbet
It must 1xbet
He naturally sees the antidote to his current struggles as a quick turnaround to fight again, likely against the dangerous Ilia Topuria in January 1xbet
Yet, that fight could go the same way as Saturday’s against Makhachev, if the Australian does not first tackle these thoughts and feelings, and find the right balance for him 1xbet
We knew Alexander Volkanovski was brave 1xbet
That is even clearer now than it was last week 1xbet
Now, however, he must be sensible, and get to work outside the ring before he can return to work in it 1xbet
