Anything you can give mate, how your operator handles it and what you use at mitigating tools to help not go head first into a PA44 doing a circling approach in VMC 1inop just cause?
Is there any reports or atsb submissions on these instances?

What extra can you do? Our pilots are just being taught to treat it like a normal CTAF and communicate like you would anywhere else. Don't trust SFIS to give you updated traffic information, because they won't. Contact other aircraft directly for their intentions, because the SFIS controller won't tell you. SFIS only seem to be there in case of a rogue aircraft that hasn't broadcast on the CTAF.
