Weight of the Packs

[Jockstap]

Here are the weights of the packs in Kg of the participating Six Nations Countries.
I was surprised by a few of them.

Wales 920
England 917
Ireland 884
Scotland 870
Italy 868
France 868

The WELSH have the largest pack in the tournament apparently, I didn't see that one coming. no disrespect to them but I honestly thought they'd be near the bottom end of the table along with Ireland who I'm surprised to see comes in third. England who I thought would have topped the group has lived up to their name as being big fat feckers. I used the French pack that bullied the Springboks to get their number and I guess they prove size can mean didly squat in this sport if you have the right technique. Looking at the teams before I did the list I would have thought it was something like this

England
Scotland
Italy
France
Ireland
Wales

Wonder how much of the English is taken up by Tim Payne?

And Wales pack would shoot through the roof if they played Eifion Roberts

I'd say the reason the Irish pack is so heavy is because thair backrow is pretty big... but still didnt expect to see them there...
