Hartley: Exciting to have Tuilagi back in England team

England captain Dylan Hartley says he’s relishing the opportunity to play alongside Manu Tuilagi once again.

Leicester centre Tuilagi has not played for England since June 2014 because of a groin injury and disciplinary issues, but will be on the bench for Saturday’s Six Nation’s tie against Wales.

Speaking to 5 live’s Jonathan Overend Hartley said it was exciting to have Tuilagi back in the side, and expects him to have an impact from the bench.

Hartley also spoke about his first few games as England captain.
