That man Wayne Barnes

fark who cares, whats done is done...there has been plenty of speculation and chat around that pass, whether he was advised by his AR or he saw it, it's done, we have won since then, so we should just go back to ignoring that RWC!
I think when he is on, he is one of the better refs going around, but he does come across as a bit of an arrogant piston wristed gibbon at times too.
Also wonder if he would be the same ref today if not for the scrutiny he received form that game?

Not sure Barnes is that much better than in 2007. That France v Wales match in the 6 Nations this year lasted 100 minutes because - though possibly legally correct - he was afraid to award the French a penalty try despite repeated Welsh scrum infringements. It was a shambles.
