According to the report, following this incident they subsequently (a) changed YMMB to Class D (b) placed restrictions on the number of aircraft in the circuit and (c) now insist that all arriving aircraft do so via specific VFR waypoints, including at Brighton (North) and Carrum (South) so.. nope, not relevant to this discussion I'm afraid. Water under the bridge and all that.

Maybe we're just lucky?!? But I have to believe it's more than that.
