So sorry to hear this news, fantastic player and a brilliant guy, R.I.P BIG D condolences to family and friends.
Re: Dennis Hartley
many happy memories watching big Dennis smashing defences, the opposing teams danger men were picked out for Dennis to run at Dennis generally nullified the danger, i believe he was in the touring side that beat AUS in their back yard , RIP big man
Re: Dennis Hartley
Sad to hear this,,, he has left a lot of good memories for Cas fans of that era, together with Johnny Ward, Hardisty, and Heppy he was brilliant,,, today he would be a world beater

Re: Dennis Hartley
Terribly sad news. A true giant in every sense.
A cornerstone of our heritage and one of the few who are known to thousands across the globe purely by their christian name.
Thank you big man. Rest in peace.
Condolences to family and friends. You should be incredibly proud of him.

Re: Dennis Hartley
Dennis was an absolute gentleman, not old enough to see him play but have heard and read plenty about his exploits in the field. I doubt the club (and Hunslet before us) would have been as successful without him.
Legend is a word that gets used far too easily nowadays....But he earned that title.
R.I.P Big Den.

Re: Dennis Hartley
Very sad, not old enough to have seen him play for cas but I've been told he was a good un.
Re: Dennis Hartley
Heard stories from my Dad, who is no shrinking violet in his own right, who says Dennis was a real Demon on the field and a fearsome prop forward that resulted in nobody taking liberties from
Castleford.
For that, he has my ultimate respect in his passing, despite never seeing him play.
I hope his family and children gain solace in all of these tremendous stories about their
Father/family member and celebrate his life rather than be sad.
Big respect Dennis. Have a blast up there mate.

Re: Dennis Hartley
Dennis was the missing piece in the jigsaw. We had been playing superb rugby with lots of flair (a bit like 2017) but missed out on the big trophies. Dennis provided the steel and backbone to complement the flair and the cup wins followed. Having said that he wasn’t short of nowse and flair himself so fitted in perfectly with the side at that time. Happy days!
