Patrick Tuipulotu will captain the Blues in 2020, having previously shared the role with Blake Gibson.
Tuipulotu was this morning confirmed as the Blues' outright skipper for the 2020 season, filling a leadership role as the side have waved goodbye to the likes of Ma'a Nonu and Sonny Bill Williams from their ranks.
Speaking to media in Auckland this morning, Tuipulotu spoke about the challenge on his plate heading into the new season.
Tuipulotu also says that he was not able to turn the job down after being approached by coach Leon MacDonald.
The Blues begin their Super Rugby season against the Chiefs next Friday at Eden Park.
