    Patrick Tuipulotu believes his body can hold up to the rigours of three more years in New Zealand Rugby

    Patrick Tuipulotu believes his body can hold up to the rigours of three more years in New Zealand Rugby


    The Blues captain and All Blacks lock has signed on until 2028, turning down offers from Japan.

    Tuipulotu has been an All Black since 2014 but has often been sidelined through injury - limited to just one World Cup in 2019.

    The 32-year-old says he still has plenty more to give.
