Muscle gain programs?

Question
hi there
i am 19 years old, i weigh 61 kgs and i am 5"9. i am really into my rugby union
and was interested in gaining weight primarily, rather than muscle straight
away, which i can then turn into muscle so that i am able to take the hits and
break tackles which is required in the game of rugby. WHAT IS YOUR ADVICE FOR ME
TO GAIN WEIGHT SO I CAN GET UP to THE 75-80 KG MARK.
thanks

Answer
Ralphy,

The best advice I can give you is: educate yourself in strength training and proper nutrition. A couple of very very reputable sources:

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle
