For some reason, this town has an unusually high percentage of darker types.

Rhys Webb (probably the nearest one to a 'stereotypical Brit')

Second one looks Greek. Same block-headed, hollow eyes look.

Third guy looks Iberian.

The only one who I would guess as British is the last, but he still looks atypical.

Most pass equally well in Iberia, France, and Wales imo (second one I'd surely guess as Iberian though). Last one, I'd say France and UK equally well. Most are robust Atlantid/Atlanto-Med range

Why do you think I find him atypical... I hardly consider most Brits and Irish to be hot. :lol:

Welsh scrum-halves are often chick magnets - Webb is currently Wales' first-choice.

Mike Phillips (was Wales' first-choice before Webb took over).

Gareth Davies (currently Wales' second-choice after Webb).

The darker ones are better looking IMO.

My question is why #2 looks Greek. He doesn't look NW European at all.

Just a darker type that pops up from time to time. English rugby player Jamie George also looks kind of Greek, don't you think?
