Sav Rocca Hit

A few thoughts on the comments.

For the Americans:

1) Aussies are the coolest people on the planet. Could we please avoid the "our American players could kill your Australian players" stuff? It's embarrassing to be associated with that, but I don't want to have to turn off the comments.

2) If you've never watched an Aussie rules game, you may want to avoid commenting on how the two sports differ, as well.

For the Aussies:

1) See #1 above. I realize the average YouTuber is probably 12-years-old, but even you youngsters should focus on keeping that reputation. No need to respond to the provocations, is there?

2) NFL and AFL are totally different games requiring totally different skill sets and training regimens. Your guys have to be able to run all day and kick the ball on target. Our guys have to go full out for short bursts during which their goal is destroying anything that moves. It's not the same game. I will also say this. If you ever stood up close to those "big, fat guys" who are so often maligned, you'd be amazed at just how fast they can move. It's freakish.

I hate these stupid arguments about who's sport is better and who competes better at each others sport. As an Aussie, I'm sick of my countrymen coming on here and baiting yanks. It really isn't a good look guys, we're better than that. I love the NFL, in my opinion it's a great sport and I enjoy watching it now that it's free to air here in Aus. Nuff said.

Ironically, that would be a foul tackle in Australian football (too high).

@south6bt Well said

afl players should be used as tackling machines in NFL instead of strictly being punters. no one would get passed them, sav rocca shows exactly why in this vid, isnt in the team for his tackling ability but is probably better than 90% of his team mates in that area.

I love AF, college, pros don't matter, it's great. I've played Aussie Rules for 15 yrs, pretty much since I could walk. I agree with south6bt, why make an us vs them joke out of this. I'd love to see more Aussies making their way over, even just Collegiate level. AF is the type of game we'd love, it has skill, it's exciting, it's tribal and it's fucking BRUTAL!!!

I say for every retired AFL baller that goes State side, send a scout back to search for playable talent in every other position!
