Errr… who’s paying for this? The aussie taxpayer through subsidies? And as the article says… for who? The lounge is never full as it is.

The massage chairs were the best feature of the lounge. Why remove them?

Madness.
 
I use the Rex lounges in SYD and MEL as fall-backs when the Virgin lounges are standing room only. This seems to occur (when I fly, at least) more often in Sydney than in Melbourne. I fully agree that, all things being equal, the Virgin lounges are far superior. But when the VA lounges are packed to capacity, I've found the Rex lounges to be a haven!
