This is indeed a change for 2003. But I don't have my books either! lol

I would like to have responses about momentum rule on free kick and why it does not apply to this situation.

Thank for all responses.
The momentum exception does not apply because the kick was not "caught" inside the 5, but rather it was "recovered". The exception applies to in-flight loose balls and not grounded loose balls. Fed 8-5-2a.
