Rolland sent off Wales skipper Sam Warburton for a spear tackle in the World Cup semi-final defeat by France. The Irishman was heavily criticised for the decision just 18 minutes into the highly-charged clash.
In the Six Nations Rolland will referee France v England on 11 March and Italy v Scotland on 17 March. He won’t be present at any Wales fixtures in the capacity of assistant referee or television match official.
