Dylan Hartley signs new deal with Northampton Saints
Dylan Hartley has been re-appointed as captain of Northampton Saints for a second time.
It comes as the 31 year old signs a new contract at Franklin's Gardens.
His old deal had been due to expire at the end of next season.
The hooker has made more than 200 appearances for Saints since joining them from Worcester Warriors in 2006.
Last season, fellow England international Tom Wood skippered the side as Saints finished seventh in England's top flight.
Hartley has led England to successive Six Nations titles under head coach Eddie Jones.
