No stomping of the feet or running up the line or whatever, but I do try to direct the coach.
FWIW, I don't intercede. I trust my partner knows what to do.

Heck, what would happen if the coach heads to my partner, I say, "That was my call, coach, so come to me please," and he responds, "I'm going to him about something else that was his responsibility, Blue"? Then I've got egg on my face.
