goals: how much control?

180something pound goals are heavy, sure, but do any of you have any experience trying to control them? I'm curious, surrounding all this speculation that they're going to be much harder to control than last year, especially those ideas that plan to grab two goals.

My speculation that it will take more than a simple latch to have decent control over moving the goal, especially turning with it. Any thoughts about this?
