While managing a stable of sporting superstars, some of Bill Telford's dodgy deals begin to unravel when he is injured whilst saving the lives of others in a terrorist attack overseas. He is evacuated to Australia and hailed as a hero - however contrary to his tabloid image - 'Wild' Bill is always on the make ensuring his cut of his clients' earnings. When his estranged son Andrew returns from Europe to pick up the pieces of the family company he discovers more than he bargained for! On the same evening Andrew arrives two of Bill's rugby league players are arrested for fighting but neither will say what caused the fight. One of the players, Jason Kerslake (Diarmid Heidenreich), could lose a lucrative sponsorship deal if his character is 'tainted'.
The 'Welcome Back Party' for rogue sports agent 'Wild' Bill Telford (John Wood) gets out of hand. Bill's estranged son Andrew (Matt Passmore) is flung back into the arms of his old girlfriend, Naomi (Eloise Oxer), while one of Bill's new football clients has a one-night stand with a prostitute before she overdoses. Unfortunately the woman had been using Andrew's credit card to slice and dice her cocaine - and Andrew is implicated in her overdose. The police are suspicious of Andrew but he cannot give them an alibi without admitting he was sleeping with Naomi. When 'Wild' Bill returns to work it's in a wheelchair and on his first day back he attends the funeral of a rival agent and manages to snatch back one of his former clients, high-profile AFL player Toddy Barton (Nathin Butler). Meanwhile, Andrew has discovered the true chaotic extent of Bill's finances. Bill needs to earn money quickly and he is approached by a Brazilian sports promoter who offers him a small fortune to 'persuade' two volleyball players to 'lose' their exhibition match against Brazil. One of the players, Kylie (Zoe Tuckwell-Smith) readily agrees, but her sister Kelly-Ann (Katie Wall) proves to be much harder to please. While sports journalist Sandy (Kelly Butler), suspects a connection between Toddy and the OD victim, Andrew discovers the victim is not only a hooker but also a man! Toddy doesn't know and his reputation will be shot if it's revealed.
Rogue sports agent 'Wild' Bill Telford is in it up to his knees again. Young Test cricket hopeful, Nathan Bailey (Matthew Walker), has failed a random drug test and Bill (John Wood) is determined to prove he's innocent. Bill blames himself for Nathan's woes, as it was at Bill's insistence that Nathan accompanied him to Thailand and he was also injured in the terrorist bombing. Bill orders his son Andrew (Matt Passmore) to fight the drug charge. Initially sceptical, Andrew discovers there are plenty of people with the opportunity and motive to set up Nathan. When Andrew delivers an outstanding result he earns the gratitude of his ex-girlfriend Naomi (Eloise Oxer). Meanwhile, Bill's wife Roz (Julianne Newbould), discovers the full extent of Bill's debts and she fears the possibility of the Telfords losing their family home. A very broke Roz is offered a large sum of money to betray her best friend. In exchange for $20,000 Roz is asked to dig up the dirt on Bill's right-hand man, Danny (Ben Oxenbould). The former footy great is a candidate in a local council election and he's standing on an anti-development ticket to protect the local surf club.
In a bid to make Telford Sports Management more efficient, Andrew decides to cull Bill's client list. But his actions end in disaster when one of the 'terminated' clients, Dominica Blaine, becomes the first female race car driver to win Australia's biggest V8 race -The Bathurst 1000. Bill (John Wood) orders Andrew (Matt Passmore) to 'retrieve' Dominica's (Simmone Jade Mackinnon) letter of termination from her letter box. Andrew manages to do this successfully but not before he and Dominica have embarked on an affair. When Andrew's deepening relationship with Dominica lands him in trouble it's Naomi (Eloise Oxer) who bails him out. In spite of their mutual hostility there is still a spark burning between Andrew and his ex-fiancée. Meanwhile, Roz Telford (Julieanne Newbould) starts a Ladies' Book Club using books supplied by one of Bill's clients, a handsome soccer star on the rise, Abdi Attigan (Shahriar Shadab). Bill starts to suspect that Roz is having an affair with Abdi. And when he discovers that Roz is making a fortune he wonders what's really being sold at the Book Club. Could Roz Telford, model wife and mother, be leading a double-life as a drug-peddler? Danny (Ben Oxenbould) also discovers that Roz is responsible for sabotaging his attempt to run for local government. Roz betrayed him in return for $20,000 - money she desperately needed to pay Bill's debts. When the police close in on Roz and Abdi, Danny has a chance to save them from being arrested and plots a most unusual revenge. Vanessa (Ria Vandervis) urgently needs funds to enter the New York Wheelchair Marathon. Bill 'adjusts' his trust funds to pay Vanessa's way but when Andrew finds out he returns the money and faces his father's wrath.
'Wild' Bill Telford is delighted when his friend, famous singer Tom 'Dutch' Holland, buys the Falcons. Dutch (Craig McLachlan) intends to plough millions of dollars into reviving the ailing team and sends some much needed player-contracts Bill's (John Wood) way. Dutch has also brought his beautiful botoxed wife Brandi (Alexandra Davies) with him. But things begin to go awry when Dutch retrenches the Falconettes and Brandi designs some very uncomfortable eco-friendly uniforms for the players. To make matters worse, Andrew (Matt Passmore) discovers that Dutch and Bill were behind his break-up with Naomi (Eloise Oxer). Andrew confronts his father about this and the gulf between them grows even wider.
When a Falcons player is arrested after fleeing from a booze bus he claims he's a victim of drink spiking. Jordan's (Sam Haft) football career is in jeopardy. A recovering alcoholic, Jordan insists he's the victim but no one will believe him. Andrew (Matt Passmore) agrees to investigate Jordan's dubious claim and discovers, to his surprise, that Jordan's allegation is not so far-fetched after all.
