Nothing's wrong with the aircraft. Melbourne is doing runway works which commence at 2400. Put simply, the Antonov wasn't going to make it down there on time. It can only travel at 550km/h with a full load.
Expect an early departure. The crew haven't worked out the time just yet, but they're keen to get there.
EDIT: Just been advised, 0630 ETD.
