Can you generally tell Poles and Russians people apart?

Polish men

Belarusian men

Russian men

All from the same UEFA European Under-21 Championship

0 Nordids in Poland team
0 Nordids in Belarus team
4-5 Nordids in Russia team

From a Russian POV Poles are shifted towards more Slovaks - more Southern, more Alpinid phenotype, not to Germans

Yes.

I can tell them apart quite comfortably IMO. Phenotype overlap between Poles and Russians is exeggerated on anthroboards. They look clearly different.
Belarusians tho look like Russians with Polish admixture to me.

They look quite different, Poles don't look much different from Germans

About 95% Ukrainian + 5% German

(Ukrainian doesn't equate Russian)

Poland is far more homogeneously Neo-Danubian than Russia.

I think Poles look pretty different than Russians but also much different from Germans.

Russia has far more Nordids than Poland. Poland has probably least amount of Nordids if we count area between north Sea and Urals.

True. According to anthropological data there are still some regions of Russia where Nordics are actually predominant.

Poland is not ''homogeneously Neo-Danubian'' unless one is ignorant - if anything it is less. There are even Neo-Danubians or Baltids that would look out of place among Poles, for instance that retired tennis player Anna Kournikova who was classified as Neo-Danubian looks very foreign to me.

Meanwhile Poles: as you see there's a spectrum of looks, there are even some very Dinaric looking Poles like at least 3 in the 2nd picture and in the 3rd from the top two textbook Nordids. In the 1st you have a girl and a boy who might fit into Neo-Danubian phenotype I suppose. It is ordinary but not dominant.

Spoiler!
