Never seen it before and not sure if it is an instruction just for a GF or not.

Its a standard rule in AdFL, umpires can direct the the timekeepers to start time on/off for delays where there is not normally time on

I would bet dollars to donuts that the kids umpiring would have no idea that they could instruct the clock to be stopped, either.

Same thing happened in the Div 4W GF - umps stopped the clock in the 3rd quarter for a stretcher. Clock never stopped previously, so I was surprised when it happened.

AdFL Regs:

36.12 Time-on may be initiated in matches where time-on is not played at the direction of both the officiating field umpires.

In our 9 seasons back in the AdFL I’ve only seen this applied 2 or 3 times and from memory it’s been for a stretcher in a fairly close game. But if I’m an umpire you need to be pretty sure of the time wasting motive by applying it for any other reason.
