Chop - Block and dump-off

[Duke Jan]

Can a victim of the Chop Block card use Dump-Off?

[Shteve0]

Chop block:
Play after your turn has ended but before your opponent's turn begins. You may not play this card after a kick-off is resolved. This card may only be played on one of your Standing players that did not take an Action during your last turn. Your player is Placed Prone and the opposing player is now considered Stunned.

Dump-Off:
This skill allows the player to make a Quick Pass when an opponent declares that he will throw a block at him, allowing the player to get rid of the ball before he is hit. Work out the Dump-Off pass before the opponent makes his block. The normal throwing rules apply, except that neither team's turn ends as a result of the throw, whatever it may be. After the throw is worked out your opponent completes the block, and then carries on with his turn. Dump-Off may not be used on the second block from an opponent with the Frenzy skill or in conjunction with the Bombardier or Throw Team-Mate skills.

Answer:
No. Dump Off only applies when an opponent declares a block. Chop Block does not constitute throwing a block, it merely places the opposing player Stunned. Dump Off may not be used.

Erm, you missed the description of Chop Block: A player throws a dirty block on the opponent.

And what did I get for my sporting behaviour? You permanently injured one of my best players and then killed him with the Apo, you Treehugging bastard!
