Tom's excellent ball control and leadership skill combined with his level of fitness make him the Jan Molby of the hockey field, fat and lazy but occasionaly the creator of something worthy of watching in a totally ungraceful style.
Aaron is an improving hockey player, unfortunately he is tactically naive because he supports Glasgow Rangers and doesn't understand that the long ball game doesn't quite fit into hockey as well as football. He wants to be a chartered accountant!
Martin Rich aka Mr. Miss (Picture)
Martin's capacity to miss the goal is only slightly higher than our desire that he miss the game on account of his skintight cotton shorts and somewhat less tight flurescent lycra shorts.
Mike is unfortunately only an honourary II XI player now having graduated to the I XI following the demise of their previous goalie to the rugby side. Mike is the current II XI "no-hands-dessert" champion.
Arnab Roychowdhury (pronouced like Doorknob without the D) (Picture)
Arnab is trying to prove that chartered accountant types do have a life away from the books but failing badly. He got dragged into playing hockey by the mistake of asking to share a room with the current captain.
Vrug Kharkhanis (pronounced Rig as nobody could every get right whatever his other name really was)
Rig was last years goalscoring champion, but has now graduated and is earning big bucks in the city. He will be remembered for his legendary 70 minute chats to the opposing goalie.
A graduate mathematician who has finally found something better to do. Not such a regular now that he has got rid of his car (hint hint)
Graham is a helpful lad, always cheerful and willing to help, plays some helpful defence too when he isn't being helpful by refereeing the game. He has been poached by the I XI because he is so helpful.
Justin is a ringer from the I XI who enjoys hockey and so it is a miracle that he persists with the I XI.
James is our resident mild-mannered psychopath. After donning the kinky bondage gear he prefers to be tied up in before the game he likes to be left alone in the goal. He particularly hates 6" leather balls being shot at him.
Simon is in his fourth year at Queens' and has only just stated playing hockey again. Which begs the question what did he do in the previous three years?
David is a very promising player who seems far to alert to play II XI hockey games. That's probably why he was pinched by the firsts.
Chris got called in at the last minute to play a game and was dreadful. Odd really considering he plays for the I XI.
Colin is the I XI substitue and came along because he wanted a game. So we made him ref for the first half and non-standing centre forward for the second.
Mike is all-round sterling geezer. Not contents with being a fabulous hockey player, tries to make himself un-naturaly popular by arranging an away formal hall with the ladies of Jesus II. A top bloke.
On the subject of away formal halls at Jesus, the award for the being the last man back goes to Ed Eason and his obvious pulling power, shame he only uses the pulling though to get his boat moving...
Still on the subject of formal halls the joint award for the furthest distance walked after a celebratory night on the piss after a first round victory in Cuppers goes to Dave Clark and Dave Goodey. After wandering to Granchester and getting back at 3am they decided to investigate what the sunrise would look like from Coton and just about made it back in time for breakfast in hall too. Dave is also quite handy at table football, and since being an engineer has managed to apply the same processes to hockey.
Mr Walkover must be the best player in the world. We are undefeated when he plays and he guarantees us winning three nil by scoring three himself and single-handedly preventing the opposition from scoring. Unfortunately he is very anti-social and we all hate him because when he plays no one else gets to play!
