Matches better with less commentary!

-

COVID-19 is still doing a lot of harm, but some of its consequenc­es could help the shape of things to come.

For example, the first half of the Wales-Ireland match, in an empty stadium, allowed viewers to hear the referee and even some of the players, which was much more interestin­g than the continuous chatter of commentato­rs, who are all too often a distractio­n because the game has moved on before they say their piece. Perhaps there could be two transmissi­ons of the live event: 1)as it is now; and 2) on the red button, with much less commentary.
