Ways to combat the new worlds matchloading problem?

So in the worlds drivers meeting Grant Cox said that all baggs and bins for matchloading will be on the floor. Does anyone have any suggestions to matchload easily? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YB4PUGxfQYA that is the drivers meeting video for anyone who would like to watch and help.

Usually best to specify what time in the video this is mentioned…

around 3m17s into video…

It is also important to know that teams may NOT bring any devices to simplify match loading. You may ask a drive team member from either alliance to hold the bag or bin for the match loader. Do note that in the video it is expressly forbidden to have an alliance partner drive team member drive the robot for your team.

One way to help with this is having any extra people. My team had this problem at state, and so we had someone from sit under it and hold it up. Obviously this will not work if all the drive team members are being used. To our team, it wasn’t a big issue if you just grab two at a time. Hope this might help!

Could we technically put the robosource to hold the bag? Does not sound like it but double checking as we have 3 team members.

Robosource cases, and other robot transport mechanisms are not permitted at the fields.

Ok, will they have the pins of your 3 teams?

There will be a pin for the club with all three teams - then there are stickers for each individual team. I will put aside a set for you.
