The only defensive penalties I've seen is contact in a protected zone (which would be the feeder station and when a bot is touching the pyramid in this case). So this leads me to believe, either the refs aren't calling these penalties, or this isn't considered blocking the "flow" of the match. And if that isn't blocking the flow, I don't know what would be considered so.

G25) ROBOTS on the same ALLIANCE may not blockade the FIELD in an attempt to stop the flow of the MATCH. This rule has no effect on individual ROBOT-ROBOT interaction.
