Geelong have made a bold pitch to host their Round 23 clash against the Giants on a Monday night, Fox Footy reports.
The final round of the home and away is yet to be finalised in terms of game times - and it is believed the Cats CEO Brian Cook is hoping to secure the Monday slot before the pre-finals bye.
The game would take place at Simonds Stadium regardless.
It is believed the major motivation would be to limit the amount of time between playing footy; as both the Cats and Giants lost their home Preliminary Finals after playing once in the previous 26 days.
Here is how Round 23 is poised:
Adelaide (currently 1st) v West Coast (9th)
Geelong (2nd) v GWS (3rd)
Port Adelaide (4th) v Gold Coast (14th)
Richmond (6th) v St Kilda (7th)
Sydney (8th) v Carlton (16th)
Essendon (10th) v Fremantle (12th)
Hawthorn (13th) v Western Bulldogs (11th)
Collingwood (15th) v Melbourne (5th)
Brisbane (18th) v North Melbourne (17th)
