And that's my point! Maybe we'll start to see more successful robots that don't cross over the halfway point at all! If there are teams who solely focus all of their efforts on being able to score well on their side and get on the bridge, then they could essentially rule out the need of getting to the other side! And if they train their human players to feed balls over the halfway line, then they're set for the match! They can even steal balls from the opponent's alley if possible.
