Emil Bladholm was one of the first men Farmer Ed hired to help him manage the team and train the players. His fellow goat herder, the late Farm Boy Pete, was a childlike man with a great rapport with the goats, but Emil is a veteran Blood Bowl lineman with no particular farming skills. Still, he's managed to fit in well.

Over a decade ago, Emil even played alongside his hero The Mighty Zug, after signing a one-game journeyman contract with the Reikland Reavers. Needless to say, it didn't go especially well -- which is why these days, he's not teaming up with Griff Oberwald against the legends of the game. He's teaming up with Griff Goaterwald, who is a goat, against the kinds of teams that play against goats.
