A volley intercept to an enemy isn't necessarily a bad thing. You will be volleying away from goals. So you are basically stalling the offence for a little while allowing your team to get the back.
But basically this is all you are doing - stalling..
So x points for the volley intercept.
-x for the bad pass
= net result of zero.
You haven't done anything good as the opposition is still in possesion. You've just re-instated the previous position - them having ball and attacking.
If your team is able to make something of this 'stalled time'... then the bonuses come from getting subsequent tackles / intercepts.
So you haven't changed the status quo... you're just relying on you team to do something in the small amount of time you've gained for them to get back. The team only gets points if they do make use of this time and do get back to do something.
