Home Captain: "We'll defer and defend that goal" (indicating the west goal).

Ref: "You only get one choice right now; kick, receive, defend a goal, or defer to the second half."

Home Captain: "Ok, we'll defend that goal" (once again indicating the west goal).

Ref: "Visiting captain, you have the option to kick or receive."

Visitor Captain: "We'll receive."

Ref: "Home captain, you'll be kicking from the west end and it will be white choice in the second half."

I know we did this correctly,.

No you didn't. At somepoint before declaring the choice final, the R shuld have specifically said, "if you make that choice then it is highly likely you will NOT be receiving the kickoff in the 2d half either. Do you still want to do this?"
