Therefore, you can go past the opposing alliance's "Home Stretch" and knock the ball from the roost towards the opposing alliance's "Home Stretch". This allows the opposing alliance to easily push their ball past their finish line: a seperate strategy.

Bottom line: go past their "Home Stretch" and knock their ball from its roost.

That doesn't work, since G22 says you can't break the plane of a lane marker or finish line once you've crossed it.
