England full-back Freddie Steward is relishing his return to the side against South Africa and says new laws intended to create more contestable kicks "are brilliant for the game".

England fullback Freddie Steward says any criticism of the team's recent run should be on the players and not head coach Steve Borthwick.

Freddie Steward says there is more to his game than being good under the high ball but understands that is why he is back in the England side to face world champions South Africa on Saturday.
