[Brás Garcia de Mascarenhas]

This is our entire national team. Most common phenotypes and where they pass?

[The Blade]

All around Western and Southern Europe. Atlanto-Meds, Atlantids, CM types, some alpinised people and some displaying Baskid qualities.

[Brás Garcia de Mascarenhas]

Which ones can't pass in Spain?

[Costas]

I feel like half of them could pass in England. Perhaps a big higher in Wales.

You sure these guys can't pass in Spain?

[Brás Garcia de Mascarenhas]

Absolutely. Perhaps as some of these foreigners that you posted as "Spanish".

Just that you know, I didn't cherry pick anything, that is your national rugby team and that image is taken from Federación Española de Rugby website...same for the Portuguese players, that's our XV national team.

[Bell Beaker]

They are SW Europeans, and more CM like any other Rugby team. They pass best in Southern European plus the Celtic fringes of Britain.

[Damião de Góis]

There are a few foreigners here :

Volodymyr Grikh

Comparing with the spanish team that was also posted, that's a lot less. A few others have foreign surnames, but i'm not sure how old or recent they might be. Bettencourt for example is centuries old.

I also don't think this guy is fully native:

[Damião de Góis]

The name of this guy according his own link is Francisco Appleton. Very Portuguese :rolleyes:
http://fpr.pt/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/francisco-appleton.jpg

And yes, a lot of foreigners in that Spanish team that Viriato posted. In my old thread I only posted true Spanish players. A pity that the forum was fucked and the threads lost.

There are two Appletons in that team. They seem to be brothers and i have no idea of their origins, they are some of the few i mentioned had foreign surnames.
Maybe the names should have been posted.

[Bell Beaker]

Appleton is a Anglo name, rare and only existent in the district of Lisbon, it peaks in English speaking countries.

[Tooting Carmen]

While individually they can pass throughout Southern Europe, as a group the only other (mainland) European country I can think of as dark and Mediterranean-looking as that is Greece.

Are you sure they aren't too dark for Greece too, Tooting Carmen?

No.

[Fantomas]

This is our entire national team. Most common phenotypes and where they pass?

Atlanto-mediterranid is dominant component with more or less expressed paleo-European features.

[bozkur]

Mostly Meds with some CMs.

[user_]

Most of them can pass in Georgia as locals.

[averagedude]

Most of them can pass in Georgia as locals.

I don't think so
