As someone who has completed biomechanics at university recently, I can tell you now that you do not understand what momentum is.
And not only that, but Hall had not stopped running.
I'll say it again... the only way the ball would not have any momentum is if Craig Hall had been stood still during the pass. If you think he was stood still, you are watching a different game.
It is irrelevant whether he stopped after the pass.
