A fragment discusses expected normal group averages of 801 pounds versus 450 pounds for another measure. It notes a 24 month comparison with a different standard of 733 pounds, referencing jersey weight and general weights in the context of the report. The readable items point to a discrepancy between expected and actual weight figures and a comparison across time.
