2018–2019 · 2 seasons

Glamorous, gossipy and packed with scandal, it's a frothy but pointed look at the lives of footballers' partners.

Overview: The story of the women behind the men we barrack for on the footy field. There will be affairs, business opportunities, fashion footnotes, faux pas, mounting credit card bills, groupies, harassment, racism, sexism, the ever – present paparazzi and an absurd amount of fun.
How it feels: Campy, satirical, light and tense. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Class, gender, race, media
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
