mark,
you could try to catch him before he approaches the coach and start a pregame of how you would like to address the coaches actions during the game. it, as you said, would not be wise to address the coach before the game because this would give him the feeling that the crew is out to get him before the game has even started. today is a new day and a new game, and should be started with a clean slate. if your partner is competent he should be able to handle his issues or the issues that occur during the game. if not you 2 should be able to come together and get things straightened out and the ball in play.
