Doesn't mean that it's right though, does it?

I mean, I turn on to watch South Africa v Argentina and all I get is them talking about a different match???

Like I said, if they have a highlights match, that's where they should be discussing it. If I wanted a rerun, I would have taped the England match and watched that over and over again.

My opinion is not based on any argument between fans, it is based on the fact that I have decided to watch a specific match and I want the commentators to discuss that match, not a previous game.
