You will rarely, if ever, have this happen. The only times I've seen this in a block situation is in a 6-2 where a back row player has blocked, and the back row player stays at the net, while the front row player goes to the back row (works great on refs who rely on where the players play defense, rather than *knowing* who is front row). Otherwise, you would need to have a back row player all of a sudden forget she's back row and come to the front row and block. It *could* happen, but it's rare.

If you suspect something like this has happened, as has been stated, you don't *have* to make this call right away. You can always ask the scorer if the suspected player was one of the last three servers. If so, back row.
