Yes there is,
as a Warrior tank, even if Flash is added to skill list, the times they can activate it is very limited due to low MP pool
Overpower, their enmity generating AoE, usually for a few times at the start of each fights is essential to keep slept mobs from chasing the healer after enmity generated by heals during they're sleeping.

So for best result, learn / ask how many Overpower they're going to use, apply sleep afterwards.
But if the Warrior simply wake them up in the middle of a fight with Overpower... their fault.

A tip for healers who're forced or ran into situations with mobs attacking them:

It's the healer's job to run to the tank and give them a easier time pulling your mob back,
not waiting them to come over, having perhaps 3 other mobs on him ignored to get yours back.

And most importantly yet, dont run back, run in circles. It only buys more time for the mob to damage the healer, while the tank have to chase you all across the map, ignoring his mobs (while other DPS may still attacking them, increasing hate)
