List Of Central Coast Mariners FC Players
This is a list of football (soccer) players who have played for Central Coast Mariners FC. It includes players that have played at least one match, either as a starting player or a substitute, for the Mariners in the A-League competition and the finals series.

The A-League is the premier domestic association football competition in Australia. It was founded in 2004, and the Central Coast Mariners were one of the eight inaugural clubs to participate in the new competition. The A-League competition consists of a regular season and a finals series, with the premiership being awarded to the club who finishes on top of the table in the regular season, and the championship to the winner of the Grand Final. Central Coast finished as runner-up in the 2005–06 season, losing in the Grand Final to Sydney FC.
Central Coast have had eighteen players compete for them who have been capped at international level–fifteen Australians, one Scot, one New Zealander and one Maltese player. This includes the current record-holder for goals for the Australian national team, Damian Mori, who played eight matches for the Mariners in the 2006–07 A-League season and three in the 2007–08 season.

“My list of things I never pictured myself saying when I pictured myself as a parent has grown over the years.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
“The advice of their elders to young men is very apt to be as unreal as a list of the hundred best books.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (1841–1935)
“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“Frequently also some fair-weather finery ripped off a vessel by a storm near the coast was nailed up against an outhouse. I saw fastened to a shed near the lighthouse a long new sign with the words “ANGLO SAXON” on it in large gilt letters, as if it were a useless part which the ship could afford to lose, or which the sailors had discharged at the same time with the pilot. But it interested somewhat as if it had been a part of the Argo, clipped off in passing through the Symplegades.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Ye Mariners of England
That guard our native seas!
Whose flag has braved a thousand years
The battle and the breeze!”
—Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)
“Will you see the players well bestowed? Do you hear, let them
be well used, for they are the abstracts and brief chronicles of the time. After your death you were better have a bad epitaph than their ill report while you live.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
