O/T Rugby Union World Cup : Wed Nov 23, 2011 8:15 pm  

Apparently the coach of Samoa has been fined for turning up at an enquiry into their dismal performance in the Rugby Union World Cup, drunk, and he has been heavily fined.
The fine?
200 pigs.
It's no joke, check it out, todays Express.
So, who gets the pigs?

Just read a report in the Times. Blames what went on with England on RU not being ready for professionalism!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They've had 16 years and were already paying their players before that anyway!!

Its just the type of bloke they get playing and running the rah sport and the boring way these people insist it is played!

They behaved just like pampered public school boys...........

I wonder if it had been the Welsh coach would it have been sheep. I feel a ban coming on.

GCSE Maths.
A man owes 200 pigs, he has only got 92, how many sheep does he need to add to pay off his debt.

Depends how many sheep is equivalent to 1 pig for example;

1 pig = 4 sheep meaning
200 pigs - 92pigs = 108 pigs
108pig x 4 sheep = 432 sheep

HOWEVER

The man only owed 100 pigs meaning 400 sheep (equivalent to 100pig) would then have to be rebated to the man meaning in total only 32 sheep would need to be paid to nullify his debt.

Confused yet?
