My best guess is the same reasons shows like 24 and Lost are so popular. Even refs are human and humans seem to be attracted to unfolding drama where the most unbelievable thing will happen next.

The real answer is so the coach knows the type and nature of the foul. Delay of game, behaviour, reporting error and so that the coach knows what exactly to avoid in the future.

They're only coaches for gawd sakes, if you don't teach them who will :P
