Are we going to start calling it obstruction when a decoy almost impedes a player?

Come on lads.

There’s a big difference between running through the line, not impeding the defensive player and running through the line as the player is shifting across the field to cover. Api is facing the sideline and has to go around the player as he passes through the defensive line.

If he was front on, no problem but he has to adjust his line to get around him. It’s not a traditional obstruction but he is denied a clear path to the attacking player

Is it just me, or does Alaimalo look like some ungodly bastard mix of Joey Manu and Selwyn Cobbo?

But the decoy has done exactly what he's supposed to do?

It's not obstruction.
