There are other ways to position your robot, however.
Regardless of the method used, one would assume that the Poofs have thought of this eventuality and probably have some sort of back-up plan. Whether that be turning to the left instead of the right, or just not shooting if there's something in their path has yet to be seen - but assuming that they don't shoot unless they get to the end of their path - putting up a goalie bot in front of them is probably a waste of time, since they should be able to get rid of all three balls fairly quickly into the teleop period...

If anything, the fact that 254 can possess all 3 of their alliances starting balls at once is the real advantage here. Who cares if they score them? Just not having to chase one or two down for the first 20 seconds of the match is enough of an advantage.
