Re: [FTC]: The View of Penalties in FTC vs. FRC

"In our last match there was a pretty aggregious foul where an opposing team waited till we started lifting the crate (in our safe zone) and then attemped to swat it out of our grasp. They contacted our crate hard, but failed to dislodge it."


Lucky for them, then, because if they dislodged it and a ball came out (as one almost always would in a fall from a high lift position), they would have been disqualified under <SG2> (with you in the safe zone). So their strategy was likely to fail no matter what. I am guessing they didn't realize they were risking disqualification.
