«City»
Before it turned sky blue, the club now based at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium played under a different name: Melbourne Heart, formed in 2009. The change brought a colour and a badge — within a handful of seasons the shirt had been worn by David Villa, Harry Kewell and Tim Cahill.
The club's strongest run came in one stretch: three Premierships in succession, from 2020–21 through 2022–23, followed by Grand Final wins in 2021 and 2025. Its only trophy from outside the league table is the Australia Cup, won in 2016.
Jamie Maclaren has scored more goals for City than anyone else, and Curtis Good has made more appearances than anyone who has worn the shirt.
None of that matters as much, on the day, as the fixture against Melbourne Victory. The Melbourne Derby splits the city between two clubs.
