Ben Youngs showed 'star quality' v South Africa - Dawson

England scrum-half Ben Youngs showed 'star quality' in the 37-21 win over South Africa, says World Cup winner Matt Dawson.

Youngs helped England to a first win over the Springboks in 10 years as Eddie Jones' side scored four tries at Twickenham.

"That's possibly one of the best games I've seen him play for England and he's played a load of good games," said Dawson, who played at scrum-half in England's World Cup winning side.

"He managed the game brilliantly well and was tactically very astute.

"There was two sniping runs which resulted in two tries and that shows real star quality for me," he added.
