If Sky are going to promote a black lives matter round it might be a good idea if their commentators  could identify Kevin Niquama from Regan Grace!.

it happens frequently - dave woods has done it several times= the players look similar so its an honest mistake - get over it - just like when brett morris was getting lorded for a milestone try for roosters when it was josh who scored

Too be honest Saints are so much better and Leeds so poor no matter if youngsters that I just can't enjoy watching.  I know you have to play youngster so they gain experience but playing so many at the same times really exposures them.   

Over the various SL games that these youngsters have played they have not improved but gone backwards - just don't see how it build their confidence. 

At least the Saints youngsters are a few in a really strong team allowing them to really enjoy and build their game.

Bill Arthur's the biggest culprit, if I can tell the difference someone who's being paid to talk about the game should be capable of identifying player's, never mind that they are the two coloured player's in the team, it's not a good look whatever you may think.

Saint's should be asking themselves how they only scored 22 in that half.

Haven’t Leeds done this to maximise their chances of winning the Cup?

I’ve not much sympathy with them if so.

They’re a big club who should be competitive at all times really.

it doesnt automatically bring up an issue of racism though, the main reason they look so similar is prob their build and same haircuts that none of the other players have, do you honestly think a commentator would call out a wrong name in order to be a deliberate racist? GET OVER YOURSELVES stop being pathetic

Not that i disagree about Leeds, but the best academy isn't necessarily the team that wins the competition, as winning the comp isn't the purpose of having an academy.

Its particularly embarrassing given they play on completely opposite sides of the pitch!

because of course players never stray from the side of the pitch their number indicates do they?

Knowles head high, then dissents and still on the field, we’ll end up like soccer if this isn’t dealt with

Dominant display for the most part as you'd expect given the respective teamsheets. Poor execution for a 20 minute period in the second half was disappointing. Looking forward to seeing a few fresh faces come in on Monday, hopefully a first half back pairing for Welsby and Dodd.

Don't be ridiculous. They are both black (not "coloured"), they are both very similar heights and builds, and both play on the edges. From a distance it's very easy to mistake one for the other, especially if you cant see the number or they have defenders around them or whatever. The same mistake is made with white players all the time. Stop trying to make an issue out of something that isn't there.
