Dual code international rugby legend Andy Farrell will make a star appearance at this weekend’s Emirates Dubai Rugby Sevens as part of the Joining Jack international veterans side.

The squad was formed in aid of Jack Johnson — the son of former Wigan Warriors rugby league player Andy — who has a progressive muscle-wasting condition called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Farrell will step out alongside other stars like Jason Robinson, Sean Long and Paul Sculthorpe, while Martin Offiah has been handed the role of water boy, taking over from 2012 Tour de France winner Bradley Wiggins, who performed the duty in Dubai last year.

Thought he played last year too. This joining jack charity is a great cause and it's amazing the support it gets from the league connection. Sam Tomkins and Josh Charnley are good for doing the salute on tv after their tries especially.
