G has Grab, is pushed to player X. Can X then be pushed to the exclamation marks?
Here's what the venerable rulebook has to say on the matter.

secondary push back is treated exactly like a normal push back
as if the second player had been blocked by the first |
A literal-minded person would interpret this to mean that yeah, the pushed Grabber could choose the additional squares. A thinking person would consider that silly. |
A literal-minded person would likely point out the difference between a block and a Block Action and not ask the "silly question", realizing that G has not taken a Block Action and therefore cannot use Grab  |

...there could be an argument that the pushed player (your opponent) decides where player X gets pushed to. This would negate all chainpushing etc. |
Only if you ignore the very next sentence in the rulebook:| Quote: | | The coach of the moving team decides all push back directions for secondary push backs unless the pushed player has a skill that overrides this. |

Hehe. Well, yeah, there is that.
I hadn't checked the rules, just the quote  |

But really it's for S access only players as 3rd or 4th normal, or a legend skill on GS access.
Would be fun to do a Grab Spam team though. |
They're called Simyins  |
5 players don't make a spam! ;p |
