He played a total of eighty-six matches for New Zealand and scored 164 points from thirty-three tries, eighteen conversions, five penalty goals and a dropped goal. He played for New Zealand Māori for twelve years, Northland (when it was known as North Auckland) for sixteen and numerous other national and invitation teams.
