None of the robots revealed thusfar have even attempted to contain balls.. I see 2 reasons for this..
1. Those suckers are big and unven. And after a few rounds they'll be donuts.
2. Most of us only have 1 real game ball to test with. You pop it, you're screwed.

Is it really necessary to shoot down an idea just because you don't agree with it? Maybe the teams that have ball-holding mechanisms just aren't done yet, or don't want to reveal their designs for doing so. Have you considered that third reason?
