Substitute the destination as Mildura and its easy to see that nothing has changed in the last 12 years.
Not too sure what you're on about? QF Ops (whatever they are called) ACARSd the new ADL TAF to the crew around TOC out of Sydney, long before they got to a PNR. As for the MIA Metars and TAF, nothing had changed until the aircraft were already diverting to MIA.
Looks to me like QF Ops did the right thing.
