He was capped 9 times by the Scotland national team, making his debut against Ireland in 1892 at the age of 19. He scored 5 goals for Scotland, including a goal in each of his first four appearances.

His older brother, John, was also a Scottish international player and holds the records for being the youngest Scotland player and captain of all time.
