I wouldn't be surprised if Mr Joyce decided to shut down QF International now that it's separate from Domestic. He has done it before.
Shut it down then just use Jetstar as the international and domestic carrier for the leisure market, Emirates the premium one and QF domestic for the domestic premium.
Keep what assets he wants then cut the rest loose, just like ANZ.
If QF drivers want a job they can fly their old A330s on the new Jetstar contract.
Goodbye to all the 767 and 744 drivers who he doesn't need as well as all the surplus international flight attendants.
That sounds like a plan he would use and I am sure he has learnt a bit from his Ansett days.
