Wrong, the great schism specifically refers to the mutual acts of excommunication between the Catholic Pope and the Patriarch and the break of commune between the west and in the east. The disputes prior to themselves were just that, disputes, it did not prevent a western rite Christian from receiving communion from an eastern rite priest or vice versa.

It's why a Roman Catholic can receive communion in from a Byzantine Catholic Priest despite said priest the Orthodox Rite but not an Orthodox Priest who practices the same rite.
