As has already been stated, the actions you could have incurred could have ranged from 20-90 points on a 20 point ball. I couldn't remember if the robot that 973 was attempting a block on had either one ball or 2 until I saw the video.

There are incidences and specific scenarios where you could leave or almost leave the goalie zone in an attempt to thwart autonomous and it count as an actual net benefit provided you do not get a red card.

However, as always, it's a pleasure.
