The 2021-22 campaign delivered a season of dominance and record-breaking consistency for Melbourne City as the Cityzens clinched their second consecutive A-League Men Premiership, securing a historic hat-trick of regular season titles. Spearheading the prolific attack was talismanic striker Jamie Maclaren, whose 15 goals in the regular season earned him the A-League Golden Boot award for the third successive time. Under manager Patrick Kisnorbo and captain Scott Jamieson, the team was a formidable force, though they ultimately finished as Finals runners-up. It was a standout year that cemented the club's new era of supremacy in Australian football.
