I've followed Sav all thru the system at Saints and he's a very good player. I tipped him to be a top player when he was 15 and posted it on our board before most even heard of him.
He's nothing like Currie in terms of playing style but he can just be effective as him in his own style. You won't see Sav making 40m plus clean breaks or using his pace to chase back like Currie does but he will make big meters, attract players because of his power that will create space, he will bust tackles etc.
I don't want him to leave but he's been in the same bracket as Travis Burns at Saints and been a KC scape goat when things don't go well.
It's well documented that Sav wants to play backrow but imo he's not a second row as he struggles defensively on the edges as he gets caught flat footed in defence. Imo he's more the 13 style prop as he is a big lad (Lost few pounds last pre season tho).
He will be top signing and no doubt be in nrl in few years
