The OP had an exit row seat preallocated by Qantas. This was done either by Qantas staff or the computerised preallocation process; He did not choose it. Indeed, Quick Check would not let him print the BP for it. He had to go to the desk.
It was pre-allocated and it was also a pretty heavy loading. I checked in as a high sequence number, so there is always the possibility, that the exit row was the first seat that fit my profile (forward window) and it would also have been a heavy high status flight, so the front row 'premium' seating would have all gone pretty quickly as well...

Definately... Very rarely have I had someone ask me I would like an exit row (does happen occassionally, but usually when the plane is fullish and the front is full.) So if you want to avoid recliners, then ask for them!
