He's fighting for a kicking job on the Philadelphia Eagles. He has quickly become a fan favorite. Here's a video from his first preseason game. (The NFL will probably remove it soon from YouTube)
His comment after the play "As soon as it happened, I was, like, where the hell did he come from?" Rocca laughed. "But it's fine. If that's the best he's got, good luck to him."
BTW: That's an illegal hit.
I thought I was watching an AFL video, cause that's they do in AFL
"Remember lads, rugby is a team game; all 14 of you make sure you pass the ball to ..........."
You see Larry, Sav learnt his art at that fine estabilshment over here (well Melbourne really, where they really love their sport!) known as The Collingwood Football Club ("good ol Collingwood for ever"), they're a hard mob The Pies, and as you can gather by Sav's comment after the hit, he's big boy that can certainly handle a little bump like that, illegal or not!
Go The Pies!

Well the whole city of Philadelphia is pulling for him to make the team. So far I guess it's pretty even. Sav can kick longer and higher but I guess he's not as consistent as the other kicker.
Well it would have been an old video then. The way they've messed with AFL "laws of the game" he'd have been called for charging and penalised 50m or a push in the back.Originally Posted by tdevil

Legalities aside, that's a pretty decent hit!
Always worse when the recipient isn't prepared for it though.
I don't have sound to hear the commentary Larry, that would be a pretty decent punt wouldn't it? Looked about three quarters of the field?

Saverio 'Row-kar' really got some puchase on it, I think he kicked 65 yards ... maybe.

Most punters just kick and get out of the way. The whole city is waiting for Sav to run down and crush somebody after the kick. Hopefully that will be tonight at the first home game.
How does his build stack up against the average Punter in the game Larry?
He'd have to big enough to take on some of the outside backs?

As he's an ex Collingwood player watch out cause he will choke when the pressure comes on. He's had years of practice.
