Eddie acts as steward to his new star turns

FREDDIE STEWARD has been told he can be an England great if he continues to fly high - while keeping his feet on the ground.

The 6ft 5in full-back was hailed by Eddie Jones as the best Red Rose No.15 since Mike Brown after his man-of-thematch display against Australia on Saturday.

In only his fourth start, and his first against tier one opposition, the 20-year old scored a try and was solid under the high ball.

Jones said: “I haven’t seen an English full-back as courageous in the air like him since Mike Brown. If he keeps his feet on the ground he could have a great career.”himself into bother by

Jones said the same about Marcus Smith, left, a week ago and talked using Emma Raducanu as an example of how young stars can get distracted.

“I won’t make any analogical statements because I will get in too much trouble,” he added. “But it is hard for these young players.

“We have to try to help him manage his distractions because he is going to be the talk of the town.”

Smith and Owen Farrell combined well for Steward’s try and Jones compared their new partnership to “two opening batsman who haven’t batted together and are facing the new ball for the first time”.

Farrell hurt his ankle and could miss the South Africa game in which Jones is demanding a big finish to the autumn campaign.

“It’s like you go out on a date with a girlfriend,” he said. “The night finishes well and you can’t wait for the next date.

“We want to make sure the guys have that feeling so they can’t wait to get back into camp for the Six Nations.”
