Unfortunately you are unable to think on a high level of logic, just like the AFL.
The problem is , that sponsors, corporates etc will always be allocated tickets, so holding the biggest game of the year at a lower capacity stadium just means more supporters will miss out, and at a stadium which only holds 45000, **** all tickets will be left for supporters. So you didn't exactly show much logic either, did you?
Since the WCE and Bears came into the league in 87, Victorian teams have played interstate teams 10 times in the GF, with the interstate teams winning 7, which proves on GF day the ground is not an advantage
