because knocking off friday afternoon and getting on the cans at the footy is awesome.
Doing it on a monday isnt.
Very pleased that it will be on a friday night.

It's all to do with TV rights.
The biggest market TV market is Melbourne so it makes sense to have a Victorian club play every week in the biggest time slot. Everything revolves around it
