dbpprop:abstract
  • Saverio "Sav" Giovanni Rocca (born 20 November 1973) is an all-round sportsperson who is currently an American football punter for the Philadelphia Eagles in the National Football League. While he is notable as converting from professional Australian rules football to professional American Football, he is most notable for his Australian rules football career. During his time in the Australian Football League, he became one of the greatest goalkickers in the history of the competition. In a career which spanned 14 years between Collingwood and North Melbourne Football Clubs, he ended up 13th in the AFL all-time goalkicking records. While he averaged just under 3 goals a game, he was noted more for his ability to kick accurately from great distances which ultimately led to his trial for the Eagles. Saverio is the older brother of Anthony Rocca and for a brief time in their careers, they both played for Collingwood, combining at centre half and full-forward. Anthony now hopes to follow his brother into the NFL as a punter. When he converted to American Football he made the history books as the oldest rookie in the history of the NFL, taking the mantle from fellow Australian Ben Graham.
