No. Because your flight is originating in AUH and not in Australia, you may need to call the Velocity call centre to book it. I can see Melbourne to London availability via Abu Dhabi on Etihad on November 5 next year, so the AUH-LHR flight is probably bookable with points; you'll just need to do it over the phone.

Was searching for award space from Abu Dhabi to London next year in April, Oct and Nov. every option was via Doha with Qatar.
Could this indicate the virgin/ etihad partnership is ending?

Yep, true, that could be it.
I just found it interesting because a few months back i traveled one way from AUH-LHR on a ticket i booked through the velocity site.
