World Cup winner Matt Dawson says 21 year-old Maro Itoje is becoming England's talisman. Maro Itoje has won all 26 matches he has started for Saracens and England. Dawson said: "The expectation now of Maro Itoje is to be world class every single time he plays. "He's becoming a talisman as well as winning 26 games on the spin." Itoje has won a domestic double, Grand Slam title, a series win in Australia and was named European player of the year. England beat the Wallabies 44 - 40 in Sydney, securing a Test series whitewash over Australia. Eddie Jones' men remain unbeaten, with his side currently ranked 2nd in World Rugby .
