Prahran's James Billington gets a chance to get his hands on the prestigious premier firsts trophy when Prahran takes on Dandenong on Saturday.
The True Blues are aiming to end a premiership drought, chasing their first premier grade flag in more than 40 years.
The two sides will clash heads at Citipower Centre (Junction Oval) from 9am.
Billington and his teammates booked a spot in the decider with a dominant semi-final win over Fitzroy-Doncaster on Saturday.
The True Blues elected to bowl first at Toorak Park and it proved the right call from skipper Jake Hancock.
In a rain-affected contest, the Lions could only manage 6-138 from 33 overs.
Prahran made light work of the run chase as Billington (20 runs) and fellow opener Nick Blaich (63) tore apart the Lions’ bowling outfit.
Blaich especially, with the keeper-batsman crunching six boundaries — with five hits sailing over the rope — in his 37-ball knock.
The pair put on 80 runs for the opening partnership and laid the perfect platform for the True Blues’ six-wicket win.
There was a possibility Billington could front up against fellow Shepparton products in the premiership decider, but it was not meant to be as Geelong suffered a narrow loss to Dandenong.
Geelong came within a whisker of progressing through, with Dandenong willing itself over the line in the final over of the match.
Chasing 6-219, Dandenong reached the target with three deliveries left.
Karramomus’ Josh McDonald showcased his excellent skills with the gloves and finished with a stumping in the loss.
Meanwhile, Central Park-St Brendan's product Josh Larkin (1-31) bowled strongly, as his brother Tyler chipped in with 22 runs with the bat for Geelong.
Goulburn Valley Bush Bash League marquee players James Nanopoulos and Peter Cassidy will line-up for Dandenong in the final.
● This weekend's premier firsts decider will be broadcast live on streaming service Kayo and on the Victorian Premier Cricket website.
