Chairman Michael Erdeljac said the concept had been a success in capital cities and is confident the Tuesday, December 10, round will be a winner.

"We think it's a good time of the year and matches are over in two hours, 20 minutes," Erdeljac said.

"Years and years ago we ran a comp mid-week but this is at club level.

"It's definitely worth looking at how it goes."
