[QUOTE="Rooinek, post: 845354, member: 74922"] Did anyone else get the impression that Wayne Barnes was milking the situation and intentionally dragging the game out? There were a few times when he could have sped things up but he chose to rather make whatever decision delayed the game further . . . like when he said that he had to confer with the TMO only to have the TMO say he didn't know know what he (Barnes) was talking about . . . or when he stopped yet another scrum reset to ask more questions about the French substitution. It's almost as if Barnes recognized there was a chance to break some kind of record for the longest period of "play" after the hooter and from that point onwards did whatever he could to break that record.
