About The Author

Mel Hoffman is a writer from Melbourne who was thrown into the limelight when she started dating rugby league star Ryan 'Hoff' Hoffman. Mel wrote about her experience as a 'WAG' in the Melbourne Storm blog called 'Confessions of a Rugby League Wife', giving insights into how the demanding industry affects players' lives.

In 2018 Mel hit the front pages when she wrote about her disappointment over the treatment of women by rugby stars, noting the issues in the industry as a whole that she believed led to this behaviour. She decided to write Full Credit to the Boys when her young son started playing rugby, in the hope her experience could help create a better, more respectful culture she could fully support. This is her first book.
