He played 41 matches for the All Blacks including 14 as captain. McDonald played in eight internationals, including the famous "Match of the Century" against Wales. He went on to coach both the Otago and Wellington provincial teams, and was a North Island, South Island and national selector. He co-managed the All Blacks on their 1938 tour of Australia, and was assistant manager for the 1949 South African tour.
