The omni-wheel placement depends on where they want the center of rotation to be. If they wish to pivot around the front, place the omnis in the back. Vice versa for pivoting around the back. If they wish to pivot around the center (as well as reduce opposing robots ability to pivot them compared to other omni placements), the best solution would to be place the omni wheels on opposite corners of the drive.
