Wilson backing Isgro to create havoc for Quins

RODRIGO Isgro is a “physical specimen” who will become an even more destructive weapon for Quins once he is Premiership “battled hardened”.

That’s the view of the man trying to help the Argentinian sensation develop into an even bigger hit with the Harlequins faithful. Head coach Danny Wilson has nothing but praise for the way the 25-year-old wing has adapted to his new South West London surroundings, and immediately shown off his explosive, dynamic style.

Just like Marcus Smith, he has the X-factor to unlock defences and produce moments of magic. And Quins will need him to build on his early impressive form if they are to challenge successful on both domestic and European fronts.

And Wilson insists: “I guess he is experiencing a knew learning curve in the shape of English club rugby. He came from being an outstanding Sevens performer to playing in the Premiership and needing to adapt. He just needs to be battle hardened to do what he does so well week in week out.
