[QUOTE="Gerjo, post: 1159408, member: 87816"] I think there is a total overemphasis on referees in rugby. I don’t believe they should be making a running commentary during the game - they should be concentrating on their own job and not deferring to TMO on any substantive decision. The emphasis on the referee has reached the points where referees are now being put on as pundits to tell the viewer what the referee is doing. Professional sport makes its money from entertainment and people don’t want to spend their time watching and listening to referees. [/QUOTE]
