Having just enjoyed the 4-day break over Easter, I reckon another one over the long weekend in October would be good. Move the Jan 26 holiday or the March holiday to the Friday of that weekend.

Celebrate Australia Weekend
Friday: Celebrate Indigenous Australia (The Melbourne AFL GF Parade could become part of this)
Saturday: Celebrate Australian Sport and Recreation (also AFL Grand Final Day)
Sunday: Celebrate Australian Agriculture and Industry
Monday: Celebrate Multicultural Australia and have ceremonies on this day

Not just the A-League. Celtic from the Scottish Premier League were victim to one of the better dives in recent memory!
