He turned his back to the attacking player after and, as someone said, admired his pass. He may have been in a vulnerable position but he made himself vulnerable.

Maybe Watson was expecting that; it seems reasonable. Whatever the case, the interesting point for me is to what degree the injured player is responsible and how that is factored in to how the play is called.

I agree with this except for the part that the player didnt break stride which is pretty much boarding.
