Club career

Central Coast Mariners

Nisbet made his professional debut for the Central Coast Mariners on 1 August 2018 in a FFA Cup match against Adelaide United, starting the game before being replaced at the second-half by Peter Kekeris.[2] He made his first league appearance for the Mariners as a second-half substitute in a Round 15 clash against Newcastle Jets in the F3 Derby, the Mariners going on to lose the game 1–0.[3] On 30 January 2019, he signed his maiden professional contract with the Central Coast. In the 2020–21 season, Nisbet started 24 times and provided 3 assists.[4] In the 2021–22 season, Josh Nisbet played 25 matches and scored 1 goal. In June 2022 he signed a new contract for an additional 2 years.[5]

Nisbet won the Mariners Medal for the 2022-23 season, as their best player of the year.[6] Nisbet was part of the Championship winning Mariners team in that same season.

The following season, Nisbet made his 100th league appearance for the club on 3 December 2023, in a home match against Melbourne Victory.[7] Nisbet was part of the Mariners' Championship, Premiership and AFC Cup winning 2023-24 season.[8][9][10] He also won the Johnny Warren Medal as the best player in the A-League Men campaign.[11] On 9 July 2024, it was announced that Nisbet would leave the club after turning down an offer to extend his contract; he made 145 appearances for the club, making him the Mariners' ninth most-capped player of all time at the time of his departure.[12]
