It's a very thanks and success TNC Christmas Special!

A week on from the violent pitch invasion that forced the abandonment of the Melbourne Derby, Joey Lynch and Teo Pellizzeri discuss its continued fallout and the preliminary sanctions that have been handed down to Melbourne Victory by Football Australia. Do they go too far? Not far enough? And what is to be made of the continued episodes of anti-social behaviour that continues to haunt Victory?

The APL's decision to sell the Grand Final to Sydney has been pushed into the background by the Derby, but consternation continues to emanate from the matter and Joey and Teo discuss it.

Then, Nick D'Urbano jumps on as the boys turn their thoughts to the actual football. Is Steve Corica running out of time at Sydney FC? What's going wrong at the Newcastle Jets in both ALM and ALW? Can anyone stop Melbourne City in the ALW when they get everyone back fit and healthy?

Then, we've got our wishes for what Australian football will have found in its Christmas stocking this year.

Thanks and Success. 2022 has been a heck of a ride, we love you all, and we can't wait for 2023.

And Joey Lynch is the worst person in the world.
