Video: Dylan Hartley gets sent off for flinging his elbow into another player’s face

Well this is very nasty

Dylan Hartley wouldn’t exactly be a fan’s favourite on this side of the Irish Sea and today has given us another reason to really dislike the Englishman.

He’s got himself a nice early bath for this very nasty elbow on Matt Smith after just 16 minutes of the Aviva Premiership clash between Northampton and Leicester Tigers this afternoon.

It’s actually the second red card he’s received against the Tigers.

No excuse for this. None at all

We think the picture captures the mood of the Englishman perfectly after yet another brainless moment:
