One robot moves balls from the midzone to the alliance zone, and a second moves balls of the alliance zone to the goal. It's that simple.

Why you would need extra robots in a zone is, currently, beyond me.
As the balls are reintroduced at midfield, it could be advantageous to bring the third robot from the opponent's end to midfield. That would give you an edge in gaining possession of reintroduced balls.
