    Blues number eight Hoskins Sotutu is putting any All Blacks test aspirations on hold as he prioritises reviving his Super Rugby side's one-win-five-loss start to the season

    Blues number eight Hoskins Sotutu is putting any All Blacks test aspirations on hold as he prioritises reviving his Super Rugby side's one-win-five-loss start to the season


    The 26-year-old last played for New Zealand in 2022.

    He says playing internationals again has become a secondary thought.



    Sotutu is eligible to change allegiances in November under World Rugby's three-year stand-down criteria.

    He qualifies for Fiji and England through his parents, but is contracted to NZR until the end of next year.
