Yep 787 for Jetstar prior to QF and QF say they don't have enough planes.
It is ALL geared to Jetstar doing all the routes except half a dozen QF routes.

Doing a little more research since I posted on another thread. The first 787 will be the -8, this is the smallest long range variant, but with JQ using 9 across seating there will be more seats than a QF 767. QF will use the 787-9, larger, for the international routes first, then moving the old long haul 767-300ER to domestic routes or retiring them, or returning the 7 dwarfs.
As more 787 join the fleet, including domestic, the 767 will be leaving. QF will then have 737-800 and 787 (8 or 9) for domestic mainline. 787-9, A330-200, A330-300, 747-400(Standard and ER) and finally A380-800 for international operations.
Qantaslink, Jetconnect have been left out of this equation.
