[4][5] Davies made his sole state representative appearance for Western Australia in 1954 contesting the King's Cup at the Australian Interstate Regatta.

[3] Following his Australian representative success Davies continued to compete for Banks at the senior level until 1968 then becoming a committee-man and club selector.

In 1960 Davies and his MUBC teammate John Hunt were selected to race Australia's coxless pair at the 1960 Tokyo Olympics.

They took a new Sargent & Burton eight with them to the Olympics but quickly saw that its design and technology was way behind the European built Donoratico and Stampfli shells being used by the other nations.

With Davies in the stroke seat they raced in a borrowed Donoratico eight for the B final and rowed to an overall eighth place in the Olympic regatta.
