2007

Blair spent most of his club career at Edinburgh, and was named in the Pro12 Dream team at the end of the 2007/08 season.

Blair was injured playing for Edinburgh against the Llanelli Scarlets in January 2007 and required surgery on his shoulder which prevented him from playing in the entire 2007 Six Nations Championship.

David played fly half for Sale Sharks and Edinburgh Rugby between 2007 and 2011, and Alex, who also played for Edinburgh Rugby from 2010 to 2011.

2008

He was nominated for the IRB Player of the Year in 2008, the first Scot to be nominated for this award.

That year he featured in a list of the 50 best rugby players in the world by The Independent newspaper.

Blair was made captain of his country for the first time against Ireland in the 2008 Six Nations Championship and for the next 12 consecutive games.

At the 2008 Six Nations, he captained his squad to a 15–9 victory over England at Murrayfield to win the 2008 Calcutta Cup.

He captained the national side 14 times in total.

Blair made his 50th appearance against Argentina in 2008 (2nd test).

2009

He represented the Scotland national side 85 times, as well as the touring with the British & Irish Lions in 2009.

Having been left out of the original Lions touring squad to South Africa in 2009, Blair was called up as a replacement for the injured Tomás O'Leary on 11 May, starting against The Presidents XV and the Southern Kings and coming off the bench against the Sharks.

After a relatively successful first season with Edinburgh, his side finished higher than Glasgow Warriors for the first time in over a decade, the second season proved lacklustre.
