The block area to me is where W1 attempts to gain LGP, but contact occurs before that happens.

Some of us see this play the same way. It seems others have a different understanding of what "guarding" actually is.
I didnt think we should apply a closely guarded count (Mens 6' - Womens 3' while holding) when a defender is within the required distance, but behind or on the side or running into the play.
