This week Strebre Delovski is off Kevin Muscat's Christmas list and on to his shin list after a penalty that wasn't in Melbourne Victory's clash with Brisbane Roar. Meanwhile, Central Coast Mariners' upstream swim to the finals results in piping hot fish and chips for Western Sydney Wanderers.

Of course we look ahead to the A-League Grand Final, which is finally here, and we look back at last night's A-league and W-League awards, too.
