a strange one this!

from my sons rugby world magazine.

Scotts porage oats have linked up with scottish rugby, to celebrate they are giving away a unique prize- the weight of scotland and Glasgow Warriors wing, Thom Evans in scotts porage oats. All you have to do is to work out how many boxes that would make and you have a chance of having them delivered to your door!

each box of scott's porage oats weigh 1kg.

thanks the one who, just been to get bathroom scales , i make that 91kg, does anyone agree?

email- [EMAIL="rugbyworldcompetitions@ipcmedia.com"]rugbyworldcompetitions@ipcmedia.com[/EMAIL]

subject- 'Scott's Porage Oats Competition'

sorry have not managed to get answer yet any help would be great, one for porage lovers!

    Thom Evans roughly 14st 4lbs. The pounds change with each source, either four or five. If he's playing at the weekend, this should be confirmed.

    Source for 4lbs
    Another source
    Wiki source saying 5lbs

    Quick maths says that you would need 91 1kg boxes.
  • SOrry to bump, but the official RBS 6 nations site confirms 'The One Who' at 91kg here

    Thom Evans
    (all stats from 1992 onwards)
    Date of Birth: 2nd Apr 1985
    Position: Wing
    Height: 1.88 m (6' 2")
    Weight: 91 kg (14 st 4 lb)
    The form winger in Scotland, Evans has an innate footballing ability and can make things happen from nothing. He turned in some magnificent displays for Glasgow in the Heineken Cup, scoring a hat-trick in the defeat at Bath, and also enjoyed an impressive autumn. His time spent with the national Sevens set-up means he has great pace and awareness of space.
