Antoine Dupont’s talent was never in doubt, but sevens legend Rob Vickerman admits he was taken by surprise at how quickly the France star has adapted to a new game.
He returns for the HSBC SVNS Grand Final in Madrid, and former England skipper Vickerman explained just how impressed he has been by how quickly Dupont has got up to speed where other stars of 15s have struggled. “I watched guys like Bryan Habana, Stuart Hogg, Quade Cooper, and Jarryd Hayne, humbled on a sevens pitch and with Dupont it got to the point that it was almost humorous how good he was. And he’s done it very humbly and modestly.”
