[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 331387, member: 20605"] Its down to the producers of the broadcast, so perhaps the Fox Sport producers do this and others don't. The other thing I would say is that how clearly you hear the match officials' audio is often down to the awareness of the commentators. In that regard, for all the criticism leveled at the NZ commentators Mexted, Johnson,and Nisbett, and the the Aussies, they actually know enough to be quiet while the referee is talking to a player or an Assistant Ref. I find watching Six Nations rugby with the UK commentators Stuart Barnes, Brian Moore and Miles Harrison etc, bloody frustrating because they will not shut the f**k up while the referee speaks. More than once I have heard Barnes gobbing off the whole time over the top of the referee's explanation, and then say [I]"I have no idea what that penalty was for!" [/I]DOH!
