Playing for Keeps

Love the Melbourne location shots and the association with AFL. In my opinion this show isn't about club culture (AFL) but rather the relationships between player's, their partners and their "friendship" group. It could be set in any environment where the main protagonists have high public profiles and where the media and public have an insatiable appetite for "news". I'm interested to see where it ends up.

I got so invested in the characters and after season 2's cliffhanger ending, it's such a let-down to find out the show has been cancelled....wahhhtf! Another item dumped into that abandoned storehouse of tortured dissatisfaction. I'm going to start checking show series older than 2 years to see if they've been prematurely cancelled so I can avoid this in the future. Not really fair to us viewers and there should really be a warning or notice upfront to let potential viewers know what they're in for...

This is a Top Class Australian Drama. The acting is brilliant and the story line is full of surprises. It makes for very good viewing.

..seems no matter what these folks down under set their minds to doing... they most times pull it off exceptionally well..

..this production has been building steam since the opening episode.. and you know a show is really good, when you wished they had released the entire season to streaming... because waiting that week seems never ending..

..the entire cast is terrific.. and there has to be a special mention regarding Madeline West.. for any woman, not yet forty years old.. looking as amazing as she does.. having a solid acting career.. along with a family with six children.. (one son and five daughters.. ranging from a thirteen year-old down to twins that are four).. now that is absolutely incredible..

... it's a show that's good and getting better.. always fun to watch.. to the powers that be.. please don't let this be a one or two season and done.. let it run..

Not an original concept at all, Channel 10. Go watch Footballer's Wives, the story is almost exactly the same (from the first episode). Anyway I loved that show so I'm sure this one will be great.
