Finishing on top of the ladder, Ballarat has looked unstoppable for the vast majority of the season. A combination of fantastic recruiting, strong home-grown talent and brilliant coaching has led the Miners to a league-best defence.
It's the first time Ballarat has finished on top of the ladder in nearly 20 years and perhaps the side's best opportunity for a championship since the mid-1990's. This finals series will also be the last to take place at the MARS MInerdome.
It is for all of these reasons combined why the people of Ballarat should come down and support a team which optimises what our city is all about. We are about working hard, working smart and working together to get the best possible result and that is what the Miners look to do every single night they step onto the court.
Go Miners!
