Can't we just say 'le prochain'?

The question:

Jeudi, elle a un rendez-vous. Tu veux dire ce jeudi ou ________ ?
I filled in 'le prochain', but was marked as wrong. I get that Kwiziq is trying to teach this lesson in particular but doesn't this also work? 

Thanks

In French you usually use the weekday followed by prochain. Just saying le prochain is not standard.
