Can't we just say 'le prochain'?

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

This question relates to:French lesson "Expressing "the day after/the day before" in French with "demain/hier" vs "le lendemain/la veille" vs "le jour suivant/le jour précédent" (French Expressions of Time)"

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