Any particular reason there was no Brian Moore co-commentating today?

Next Saturday screams 3 headed Butler, Moore and Davies commentary trio for the title clincher... Butler keeping neutral then Davies cheer leading Wales and Moore criticising England at every chance. awful. |

I think the 3 man commentary has worked well this year and is better than the analyst role which doesn't work in Rugby or being pitchside with the BBC reporter and speaking every 15 minutes and while the 3rd man in the box doesn't speak that much I just feel it works better. |

I think your right it will be Butler, Moore & Davies or maybe Martyn Williams for the BBC next Saturday. For the biggest match of this years tournament it would be suprising if they didn't have 3 men in the box. I think the Italy v Ireland match has Conor McNamara in the box for his annual last day 6 Nations TV match for the BBC and he probably will be reuniting with Phillip Matthews as they commentated together for the Rugby World Cup on TV3 Ireland in 2007 the only time TV3 covered the tournament as the rest have been on RTE and France v Scotland will probably be Andrew Cotter with Andy Nicol or Chris Paterson.

Italy-Ireland will be like Italy-Scotland last year. Jason Mohammad Presenting & Pitchside reporting probably with Keith Wood, McNamara and Matthews. Basic coverage possible. Game over > bugger off! ![]() Similarily for France-Scotland. Gabby Logan with Nicol or Paterson (maybe Thomas Castaignède) and Cotter/Nicol or Paterson commentary, Jill Douglas pitchside... Basic(ish). All the eggs (understandably) on Wal v Eng. However surely it will be overload central. Davies, Moore, Williams, Guscott, Woodward probably all-involved in the Anglowelsh match. |

Sky use Gower for the Sky Sports promo for New Zealand tour
but he's not presenting or commentating and we have to make do with Nick Shyte.http://www1.skysports.com/watch/vide...good-night-out Sky really do make some awful choices like Nick Halling main boxing commentator over the vastly superior Adam Smith. And the biggest clanger of the lot picking Rob Hawthorne instead of Martin Tyler for Champions League Final in 2005 |

supersport won't have any pakistani commentator for the odi series, since Rameez Raja works for Star sports.
quote from pakpassion. Spoke with Aamir Sohail arlier today. He's had some other commitments in Pakistan which means that he won't be commentating during the one day series in South Africa. |

He did the Ireland game yesterday, plus they are using their 'fake-Italian as i've got the the surename to balance things with the studio but actually I'm English' pundit today. Lawrence Dallaglio is decent enough mind you, certinaly not overly biast.

Italy v Ireland
Jason Mohammad with Marco Bortolami and Keith Wood. Comms: Conor McNamara and Philip Matthews McNamara's player identification is shocking today, He strings couple of names then rattles of some facts or inane stuff from 'last year' during good play, which I don't want to hear while there is a break in play / attack / phases. |

They've both had a poor game so far, how Matthews could say the Italian was making a meal out of being stamped by BOD I'll never know!
If you can feel sorry for someone who's landed a trip to Rome, I feel a bit sorry for Jason Mohammad in being sent to this game rather than Wales v England, where I'm sure he'd rather be today. Surely they could have sent someone else to host this and found a reporting role for Jason at the Millennium Stadium, perhaps doing something for tomorrow's Scrum V? Indeed I was half-expecting Jason to be involved in BBC Wales' in-house Comic Relief efforts (as I seem to remember them having short opt-out slots from the network once) which might have forced their hand into doing something similar to what I've suggested. By the way, thanks for the Channel 4 Racing details Alex and Ian. |

However at times Matthews is still carrying McNamara. Not good overall though. |
