Using my skills as a modern day Sherlock Holmes I would summize that he was taxiing along his well worn route without a care in the world, probably counting the sheep in an adjacent paddock, and at the last minute realized that he should have read his Notams informing him that there was works in progress on the Melbourne Apron. Having realized at the last minute, he carried out a 180 degree maneuver to his starboard side expecting the first officer to give him some idea how close he was to the shoulder. The problem was that the first officer was still eyeing off a good looking sheep in the paddock, either way he was bound to end up in the poo.
