And the question on everyones lips is will the Farts continue their glorious tradition this year (long balls, hard hits, beers after the game, providing volunteers for medical science to practise their skills on).
After all the pre season transfers and wrangling over appearrence fees, it apopears that the Farts are nearly ready to take the field of glory again for another year.
We've managed to coax another old Fart out of semi retirement - (Stan - the marvels of modern medical science) and an even older Fart (Ssh) has threatened to play this year (well cameos of course).
Line up looks like
Watkin Foote
Todd Lymburn
Alan Hyndman
Jason Heckman
