BiographyMatthew James Sutherland Dawson, MBE (born 31 October 1972) is an English retired rugby union player who played scrum half for Northampton Saints and then London Wasps.

He won 77 caps for his country in total, including nine as captain and was England's most capped scrum half until passed by Danny Care.
