Is it just a act then?

Pardon?



Do you mean an act?

You got me there Wordsworth.



It must be an act then unless your just good with spelling, a bit like rainman.

It'd would be YOU'RE



and Rainman was good with numbers

At least now I know who Ricky Gervais took to the casino, did he build the swimming pool?

Bet he could work out that if you had 5 injured centres you'd still have 15 of your first choice 17 available though.

....Owned!!

'In an effort to replace the half a stone in weight lost since being injured'



Well he did cut off his hair

I think if we can get a few big shots on Briers if he plays early on then we may do this as its very unlikely he will risk injury.

Maybe you would like to get him to teach you English?

Is it just me that thinks



'It'd would'



isn't correct English either?

I'm amazed how players lose weight when injured. When i sit on my backside and do no excersise i pile the weight on!!

They must have a secret, i need to know it lol

muscle is alot more heavier than fat



when you are a fit and strong SL player and on the sidelines injured, you lose muscle and as a result weight





if you are a couch potatoe, you have no muscle to lose...you just gain fat from eating crisps or whatever

Bahh so thats why i weigh so much

I think you'll find 1Kg of muscle weighs the same as 1Kg as fat

LISTEN LOVE I TOLD YOU TO STOP PRATTING AROUND IN HERE NOW GET HOME AND GET MY TEA ON

I bet he falls for that joke...which is the heaviest 1kg of feathers or 1kg of iron

iron silly!

Muscle is about a third more dense that fat, though. So the same VOLUME of muscle would be about 33% heavier than the equivalent volume of fat.



So while you sit idle with an injury your muscles waste but you put on more fat due to lack of exercise. Net result a loss of weight.

I don't disagree, but the original comment was that muscle was HEAVIER than fat, not that it was of a higher density, which is simply wrong. Well, actually I do disagree, as there is no way muscle is 1/3 denser than fat, in fact, it's about 1/8 denser, a lot of people confuse the stats for bone and muscle, and even then, there isn't just one type of muscle, and each has a different density, even then, each different type retains a different amount of fluid, so it's very hard to compare.



Anyway, at 50/1 I reckon Long might be a little bit lighter anyway!

Yada yada yada...



Simply - would Long's fat thigh weigh more than Long's muscular thigh or would they both weigh less than his shaun long locks?

ah, the reply of a Googlemesiter



anyway, it's irrelevant, we'll lose tomorrow and it will be all to play for against L**ds

I agree, I just hope the lads can put in a good performance, So its likely were still in it for the Final hooter and, Heck, you never know might just nick it..
