Stephen "Steve" Hartley (birth unknown) is a former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1970s and 1980s. He played at representative level for Great Britain, and at club level for Hull Kingston Rovers, as a stand-off.[1]
Hartley played stand-off in Hull Kingston Rovers' 30-10 defeat against the 1982 Kangaroos, memorably scoring one and making the other of Rovers two tries, Rovers were the only side to score more than one try against them.
Affectionately known to Rovers Supporters as 'The Dancer', there was no finer sight than seeing Hartley running onto the ball at pace with his head back gliding around opposition defenders.
