<<when a defender gets between an attacker and the goal, it's obstruction and a penalty. Care to justify that, Kumar?>>

It depends on HOW the defender got between the attacker & the goal. If I recollect right, "stick to ball", & "stick to stick & then ball" is fair game from a defense perspective. "stick to body/legs..etc" is not - a penalty is appropriate.

hey, I played it inter school many years ago, but I aint no expert (apart from a couch potato perspective).
