The camaraderie shared amongst these sportsmen transcended borders as they bonded over their love for the game. Back in Laugharne's Boathouse stood a wall of fame adorned with names like Duncan Bell, Tim Payne, and Tommy Bowe alongside Hartley's own inscription - an homage to their shared passion for rugby excellence. Together they formed an unbreakable bond within England's national team where they fought side by side on countless battlefields. Beyond rugby fields lay other realms where Dylans thrived; one such domain belonged to Dylan Mika - a force to be reckoned with in international rugby circles.
