Well the quote below from the article...
"The plane is very seriously damaged," he said.
...gets my nomination for the Understatement of the Year Award.

The thing is a dead set write off.
Although if it was a QF plane in the same shape you would see it in a nearby hangar undergoing repairs.

Don't forget the Engineers who would also say that it was due to shoddy maintenance work done overseas by the likes of SQ Engineering etc

mmmmmmI know why this plane crashed. It was reported on the Channel 9 news here in Adelaide last night that the plane was carrying "100,000 tons of fuel!"
I'm surprised it was even able to taxi!

69 tonnes of freight and 100,000 ton of fuel. Interesting ratio :!:
Must have been going the long way around.
