Part 2 of our first episode with Barnesy, hear the answer to the age old question - can you retire fat?  And we conclude our catch up with our final over segment with Barnesy!

On our first episode, we catch up with the ever present Andrew Barnes.  A proud Englishman with a long list of off-field highlights from his time in Jakarta, with not too many on-field, hear first hand how the club was formed, some early stories of the formative years and plenty of giggles along the way.  We could've chatted for hours and we've split the episode into 2 parts!  So settle into Part 1 of our cracking yarn with Barnesy for Episode 1.
