I would guess that it's because Crouch spent so much time under the 
spell himself.  Either he did not want to see anyone subjected to it, 
or he could not help but show off his skills at evading it.  Add to 
that the fact that he needed to stay "cool" to continue guiding Harry 
through the torunament.
