I have to say, watching with commentary gives me all the excitement of several people talking excitedly over the plays, while being able to focus on the match and not the silly things commentators say. @rugby

@jaz The German commentators at ran.de do a decent job. Maybe because they have to explain so much to the audience and not much time for trash talk. Even if Rugby has a long tradition here, showing it in main stream tv is a new thing.
