Weston Creek Molonglo captain Jono Dean and younger brother Blake both played substantial roles in helping the Bluebags to premiership success before jumping ship.

Fast bowler Sam Taylor, who captained Queanbeyan last season, has followed their lead this year to boost an already strong Creek side, who are the defending two-day champions.

Gillespie said there would be no shortage of motivation in the final as Queanbeyan looked to exact revenge over their former teammates.

"It's going to be very tough, there is also going to be a lot of chat with a lot of former Queanbeyan boys in there," Gillespie said.

"It definitely fires us up a lot more, but we've got to try and keep that out of our minds as much as possible and just focus on what we have to do.

"They've got a lot of skill and we've got to try and match it and do our best."

Queanbeyan have managed to rebuild with a combination of youth and experience.

Former ACT Comets player/coach Mark Higgs has returned to captain Queanbeyan, while star all-rounder Vele Dukoski is back with the Bluebags after a stint with Eastlake.

They also have a talented group of youngsters featuring Comets opening batsman Henry Hunt, fast bowler Guy Gillespie and Dean and Mark Solway.

"The squad we have is actually quite strong," Gillespie said.

"We just need to gel a bit more and be patient because it's going to take time to rebuild.

"I think we have the squad to do the job."

Gillespie will line-up for Queanbeyan in the Twenty20 final on the same day he will play for the ACT Aces in the first round of the Regional Bash against the South Coast Crew at Manuka Oval.

It's not just in the top grade where Queanbeyan has excelled in the shortest format of the game.

The club has qualified in the Twenty20 final for all four grades.

Before they turn their attentions to winning the first piece of silverware for the summer, Queanbeyan faces a tough clash in the Gallop Cup on Saturday when they host defending champions Wests/UC at Freebody Oval.

Queanbeyan has had a scratchy start to the Gallop Cup having won just one of their opening three games to sit sixth on the table.

In the remaining games of the Gallop Cup on Saturday, Weston Creek Molonglo hosts Tuggeranong, North Canberra Gungahlin faces Ginninderra at Harrison and Eastlake takes on ANU at Kingston Oval.
