Dylan Hartley's biography

At a glance

  • Captained Northampton Saints to their first Premiership title
  • Led England to a world record-equalling 18 test victories
  • England's most-capped hooker with 97 test caps

Dylan Hartley is a legend of rugby, making his name immortal as he captained and played as a hooker for Northampton Saints and England. Captaining the Saints through their most successful period in their 140-year history, he led the side to the club's first-ever Premiership title and went on to captain England on a world record-equalling run of 18 test victories.


Two Six Nations winning campaigns followed, including Grand Slam glory. Capped in 2008, his international career spanned a decade until an injury in 2019 forced his retirement.


He finished as the country's most-capped hooker with 97 test caps. Dylan is England's 2nd most-capped player of all time. Now a presenter for BT Sport, Dylan also finds time to give inspirational keynotes and is prepped and primed to inspire you, too.
