I keep seeing mention of breaking up Qantas, but I really can't see the how's or why's there; Qantas consistantly makes a very good profit. It'll all make interesting flight-deck chatter though.

I really can't see a breakup happening either, the Aussies would never allow it.
But yeah, it's all good for the pilot rumour mill.
