When Mel fell in love with Ryan 'Hoff' Hoffman, a dedicated young player with the NRL's Melbourne Storm, she had no idea what she was getting into. But she soon learned that marrying a professional sportsman means marrying a whole team of players, their managers, fans, wives and girlfriends. She also learned that the rules of the game extended far beyond the field, and as part of the rugby league 'family', she would be expected to fall into line.

This is a book of opinions and ideas with bite. It's news that talks back. Founded in 2020, Cheek Media Co. quickly established itself as the go-to platform for daring feminist opinions on everything from right-wing politics to overcoming taboos around sex and pleasure. In Bite Back, Cheek co-founder Hannah Ferguson turns her sharp, progressive perspective on the issues that matter. Her bold ideas will provoke you to think, spark important conversations and inspire meaningful social change. 'A sharp-witted, whip-smart gift to the stale national media landscape. This book will revolutionise the discourse and readers' souls simultaneously.' Grace Tame 'Brace yourself for an engaging, heart-stirring read that challenges and inspires. It's a powerful call to action for a fairer world - an absolute must-read!' Chantelle Otten 'Intersectional feminist cheek, underscored by incisive intellectual commentary. It's great. Read it!' Tarang Chawla 'Hannah Ferguson doesn't take a backward step in flaying what underscores the inequality at the heart of our society while at the same time offering humour, heart and tangible solutions for fixing the mess we've left new generations. A searing, devastating and unflinching view of what's gone wrong - and most importantly, how we take back power.' Amy Remeikis
