That pretty much counts out blocking the feeding station.
If a G11 is called on you because you are trying to draw an opponent into a G11 by blocking the feeder station, then that's basically condemning any strategy that makes it look like "you're asking for it", which would set a really bad precedent. Basically any foray into the opponent's secret passage could be considered G11 fodder.

As a side note the opponents just can't keep more than 6 boulders inside their castle. It says nothing about feeding them to their own robots; that's just preferred.
