Legal to me
Simply pinning the goal against the wall and/or the side rail sounds legal to me. Actually, this will happen in many matches.

Here's another scenario to think about:

The area gets more gray when a robot is on the wall or against the rail and there is another robot who is pinning the confined robot with the goal. I also see this happening alot. There's gonna be 2 robots fighting over 1 goal, and one robot will be pushed into the wall or the side rail.

Even though the goal is between the 2 robots, is this pinning?

I would think so.

Does this seem right?
