See a full list of Joe Marston Medal Winners (NSL & A-League) Johnny Warren Medal (best player of the season) Year Perth Glory celebrate after winning the last NSL Grand Final in 2004 JOE MARSTON MEDAL (Best player in the Grand Final) This lasted for just one year.ĪPIA Leichhardt 1987 NSL Champions From 1988 until the last season in 2004, a one-off Grand Final was used to determine the Champion. South Melbourne 1984 NSL Champions In 1987, the system reverted back to the initial mechanics of the NSL, with the Champion being the team who finished first on the table. Sydney City in the 1970's From 1984 until 1986, the competition was split into two conferences, with play-offs to decide two grand finalists who met over two legs. “To be amongst those names is an honour for me and is testament to the fact I’ve been a part of some great teams and had some great coaches.From 1977 until 1983, the NSL Champion was decided by who was the top-placed team on the ladder at the end of the season. “It’s pretty humbling to be amongst some of those names, they’re guys that have had wonderful careers in the old national league and represented Australia,” he said. Wilkinson’s success sees him overtake NSL stalwarts including Francis Awaritefe, Con Boutsianis and Damian Mori, all of whom also boast four titles, and the Sky Blues’ Captain said it’s an honour to be ranked amongst those players. “Just in terms of the way the season went, how successful we were on the pitch only losing one game and breaking the points record. “I think the one where we broke the record a couple of seasons ago, where we got 66 points, that was probably the one that stands out,” he said. Of the five titles he’s won, Wilkinson said the Sky Blues record-breaking 2016/17 success stands out as his favourite a season in which other Australian football history was also set. “To be able to get three Premierships with Sydney FC in four years is a huge achievement, and the two with the Mariners, they’re a club I spent a lot of time at and are close to my heart.” “It just goes to show I’ve been lucky enough to play in some great teams, especially this Sydney FC team over the last four years, it’s been such a successful period, and the most fun, enjoyable and successful part of my career. “It’s definitely something to be proud of,” Wilkinson said. The central defender has also claimed the K League 1 twice in 20, as well as two Hyundai A-League Championships with Sydney FC in 2016//19, an FFA Cup title with the Sky Blues in 2017, and the AFC Asian Cup with the Socceroos in 2015. The Sky Blues’ Captain has claimed the plate twice at the Central Coast Mariners in 2007/08 and 2011/12, and a treble of titles at Sydney FC in 2016/17, 2017//20, with no other player in Australian men’s national leagues history matching this feat. Sydney FC Captain Alex Wilkinson has recorded Australian football history, with the former Socceroo becoming the only player to be involved in five Premiership winning squads in men’s national leagues history.Īndrew Redmayne, Seb Ryall, Matt Simon and Michael Theo have all been involved in four title winning squads, and following the Sky Blues’ 2019/20 success, Wilkinson now stands alone atop the list of most decorated players.
