If you're, for instance, pinning an opposing robot in the corner of the Secret Passage and repeatedly tagging them, then that's probably going to be a G11 call (and a very rapid yellow card escalation). But if they happen to be in there and you rocket towards them "on the way towards collecting a ball from your HP", tagging them only once, it's a tech foul on them.
