Douglas was capped three times for Wales in the 1984 Five Nations Championship, filling in for injured scrum-half Terry Holmes. On his debut against Scotland, he fumbled a likely try in the last play of the game which would have given Wales a kick to win. He also faced off with Ireland and France, before Holmes returned for the final fixture.
