I hate discussing plays when partners get all defensive about their incorrect no-calls & resort to "you shouldn't have been looking there in the first place."

With a new official, I'm not going to stretch his primary. Once he learns his primary and how to avoid ball watching, we can discuss situations where he needs to expand.
My response to a poached call is, "What did you see?" If I saw something different, I'll mention it. I move on unless he expresses a willingness to actually discuss it openly.
