QF28, the Sunday 11 June 2017 1330 SCL - SYD looks to have been delayed overnight with departure changed to a projected 1200 'high noon' local time on Monday 12. This means SYD arrival at an estimated 1600 hours on Tuesday 13 rather than 1740 hours today, so 22 hours and 40 minutes late. Aircraft is B744 VH-OJM.
The Sunday 11 June MU736 from SYD to PVG (which is also a codeshare with QF - QF303) got as far south as Bulli (near Wollongong NSW) but had damage to an engine and had to return to SYD:

Notably the article suggests that there were only 'about three to four' English speaking passengers on the flight.
