He played 12 matches for the All Blacks including seven internationals.[2] He was a first cousin of Nelson Ball,[3] who played for the All Blacks between 1931 and 1936, and who was also the father of cartoonist, Murray Ball.[4] Following the death of Richard Fogarty in 1980, Francis held the distinction of being the oldest living All Black.
