Heading on business to Bkk in January and want to fly with VS but as we all know they dont fly there. What airline would be best for me to go with the get the best out of my flying club points? Heading from Dublin.

Looks like the only partner that goes to BKK (Via KLL) is Malaysian. Don't think you would get TP for that though. Why not go to HKG with VS [y], then on to BKK with Emirates or another good carrier? That is the only way I think you will maximise your miles/tp earning power, even if it does involve an extra stop. Or did I misunderstand you and you wanted to spend points to get there? Either way, same answer I guess.

Or if you want to maximize miles/TPs...
BD DUB-LHR
VS LHR-NRT
SQ NRT-BKK (SQ flys non-stop or offers connecting service)

How about taking Singapore Airlines to Singapore and transfer onto BKK. Miles earned.

If you want to accumulate as much mileage as possible, you could go DUB-LHR-HKG-SYD-BKK, although I think that might be a bit much.[:I] TBH, I'd go to either HKG or NRT and then on with another carrier.
VS.
