I noticed that Amex are offering lounge entry passes with Gold and Platinum cards. Why on earth would VA give them this option when the lounges are already bursting with status members ?

I got it on the Amex Platinum w/ 50k bonus pts (349$ annual). Pretty pointless as i'm already platinum though.
As far as I know, it is only for the Amex Platinum charge card. This is the $900 flagship of the Amex range (not including the centurion (black) card of course). I would assume most Amex platinum charge card holders would have Gold or higher status with either Virgin or Qantas (I have with Virgin)
Why would you assume that? Not everyone who has a high income does lots of air travel, and even some who do a lot of air travel won't have Gold status with either QFF or VA. eg someone who flies MEL-SYD rtn 30 times a year in Y with QF wouldn't get to gold. And someone who does that every week but splits between different airlines might still not get to Gold. And then there are people who do lots of international travel but all with different airlines or all on *A or whatever.
The plat charge also comes with Marco Polo status, enabling lounge entry with Qantas.
That's a new one.She said she was entitled to it as an Amex customer...
