I don't think they are going to pull jet opps any time soon, they must be seeing some potential...
Rex do not have a good track record of following through on fleet planning announcements.

This is what they said in an ASX announcement at the end of June last year ,

REX SECURES TWO ADDITIONAL BOEING 737-800NGs

Rex today announced it had signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with a lessor for the lease of two Boeing 737-800NGs.
The two aircraft are expected to arrive in late August, increasing the 737 fleet to eight, and are scheduled to enter service on Rex's domestic network in September.
...
"We hope to lease another two aircraft to take our fleet size to 10 before the end of this year as foreshadowed in our plan announced last September."
And what happened was ... nothing.
