Dylan Hartley has found himself in hot water once again as the Kiwi-born England captain copped a red card and could potentially face another lengthy ban following a swinging arm tackle in a European Rugby Champions Cup match on Saturday.
Hartley was sent off after six minute shift as a replacement hooker in the Northampton Saints 37-10 home loss to Irish side Leinster.
With England mastermind Eddie Jones in the stands, the former Rotorua Boys' High School student was dismissed after a swinging arm connected with the head of Leinster flanker Sean O'Brien in the 58th minute.
Hartley caught Irish international O'Brien on the side of the head as he fell in the tackle of another Northampton player. The incident was immediately reviewed by match officials and French referee Jerome Garces reached straight for a red card.
