This is a misinformed statement. Virgin would love to keep heavy maintenance in Australia, but up until JHAS boought AAES they considered there was no viable option. Even going back to early days of VB they tried Singapore before settling on ANZES - unfortunately even back then QF was considered a risky option due to perception that work done came with too much baggage and commercial risk.
