A warm welcome to AFF @seen .
Unless you have status with AFF I think it would be hard to get a points upgrade.
Now I looked at awards and I did find a few Premium economy awards mainly out of BNE to HKG. but 77400 each so you could not go further but economy awards from HKG-FCO were 37400-45000 so you could get to rome in April 26 on award flights.
But a real surprise on 21/4 2 F awards on CX HKG -FCO. at 149800 points each which means the 2 of you could have a first class experience on 1 leg.

Better to look and ask in QF forum. Qantas | Frequent Flyer

Upgrades only available on QF flights. Not on FF partners. Some low cost fares are not eligible for upgrades. For EU-UK only 3 QF destinations:- LHR CDG FCO.

Upgrades are never certain - guaranteed. With stats the odds of an upgrade are low. If you want a better seat book it at the start.
