We actually had an issue with that in L.A.--one of the teams was playing goalie, but they positioned, their opponents positioned, then the goalie team repositioned, and then their opponents repositioned.... After a couple of rounds of that, one of the refs went over and kept them from moving the robot again.

Basically, once you've placed, your opponents can adjust--but if you adjust again, so can they. Do it too often, and get called for delaying the match.
