EFA is already setup, and even though I can understand the frustration of current 747 pilots in QF under utilised, there is no way in hell that the flying will be under the Longhaul Contract, even with excess crew atm I still reckon it would be more expensive for EFA 747's to be crewed by current Longhaul crews. It will be under a different contract so legally the company can't use the crews because they can't force people on to the new contract unless they choose to. He'll LWOP is available so if you want to fly for them apply, I can guarantee there is no Cargo flight crew contract anywhere that resembles at all a QF Longhaul conditions......they are for pax flying not cargo. The flying is available and you can do it with a LWOP, at least the offer is there... Good luck.
