DTQ, I agree with what the others had said about taking the call for your partner and if that had happened then there probably wouldn't have been a comment from the coaches. Having said that, since it went the way it did, I wouldn't wait for the coach to ask my partner for help, knowing that my partner got crossed up on the count and wasn't where he should have been, I would have initiated the conference myself and gotten the call right.
Plus, I got to say that your comment about this being Senior LL and coaches not knowing who has the responsibility where could be a little wrong. At this level the coaches have most likely been doing this for quite a while and should be very well versed on which blue should be where and calling what.
