The amount and content of the brief depends on the circumstances. For a locally based (in this case) IBZ crew who have flown together into IBZ, it might be appropriate to say "Standard Brief".

If the FO had just passed his line check on his first type and never been to IBZ before then more briefing would be required, for example.

That said it's more important, I feel, to highlight what is "different" rather than droning on about stuff that's standard.

I am not a huge fan of masses of mnemonics but I think START is quite good for approach briefings, S = STAR/Arrival Route, T= Terrain, A= Approach, R= Runway, T = Taxi Route.
