Like much of the officiating this tournament Barnes has been comical.

Scotland have been terrible in the main; they scored a try that should have been disallowed and to their credit have just hung in and got a fair chunk of luck

Yep. France penalized for an unbelievable bit of skill, strange call by the officials
Even though he managed to dot it down ,why isn’t it still a yellow due to the intention of bringing the player down illegally?
Pretty ironic I agree but presumably not a yellow because the offence is preventing a try scoring opportunity not attempting to prevent a try scoring opportunity. If you took the latter line, pretty much every ruck would be a penalty for attempting to slow down the availability of the ball.

Can see France getting 1 more try but a gap of 21not so sure. They're still up for a win but time is rushing on and the Scots aren't down yet.
Barnsley might not be appearing at his best but he's Sir and that's it.

There we go again. He should have kept his arm down and gone for the head to head.
We see hand offs to the face and nothing not even hand near eyes.

Scotland must have turned down at least 15 points second half going for the corner.. could have won this a long time ago!
