    All Blacks prop Ofa Tu'ungafasi is embracing his role as a locker room leader for the Blues

    All Blacks prop Ofa Tu'ungafasi is embracing his role as a locker room leader for the Blues


    The 33-year-old perennial scrum threat sat out much of last season with a neck injury, and hopes to be fit for round one of Super Rugby in February.

    The tighthead prop will likely be joined by 24-year-old loosehead Josh Fusitu'a as first choice options.

    Tu'ungafasi says he loves sharing his wealth of knowledge, in a way he never encountered.
