I think the best time to address this is in pregame. Talk about coverage areas. Talk about trusting your partners and crew integrity. Talk about a couple specific instances where you felt that a partner called out of their area and compromised crew integrity. There are some officials who will never learn to trust their partners. In that case, just do as Mick says. "Get in, get done, get out."
