Default Fixing a loose patch on a lath & plaster ceiling...

I have a loose patch approx 2ft diameter on an overpapered lath &
hair plaster ceiling.

I can get to the rear of the laths (loft).

Does the prop it & pour on loose mix plaster method work?

I envisage hoovering out the back of the laths, wetting with a
spray, pouring on the plaster, move it around to try & get it
down & around the laths, leave to set, remove prop whilst
praying.

Any gotchas here?
Any top tips here? Ordinary plaster? Bonding agent? Scrim/mesh?

TIA
