Yes, there may be a delay, but certainly not match-ending because there is no point at which the team attempting to block can safely "sit" to effectively cause a stalemate)

Thanks for your insightful input
We do intend to abide by the head refs ruling, but I wanted to get some community input, since its an interesting question to raise, and may raise some awareness. Our team still enjoyed our matches, and I'm not too hung up on what could have been, since its not productive; my ultimate goal is to find talking points for a more favorable ruling in the future (or to be given solid reasoning why the ruling was ok).
