Captain wasn't happy about the speed being too high. Called off the approach nice and early and did not try slow the aircraft excessively. Why I like flying Qantas. I was on a Flight to SIN on QF and the pilot turned away from the approach, and after entering a hold came over the PA and said "passengers on the right of the aircraft will see a large storm cell moving over the airport, I am not going to attempt a landing in those conditions. We have enough fuel for another 5 flying hours, we will hold until the conditions improve or divert if necessary". No undue risk necessary.

What was the reason for the Go around ?!

According to the PA they made shortly after, we were a bit too fast on the approach
