Sure you can block without latching onto anything. What you can't do is block with arms that extend 3 or 4 feet past your wheels without latching onto something.
It doesn't really matter though, I think Ogre cleared it up. The wording of the rule looks like it makes it legal to block with those arms resting against goals.
