Bignall played eight matches for the Australian national team between 1954 and 1956, and he was the 127th player to debut for his nation against New Zealand on 28 August 1954. He became the 16th captain of the national team against South Africa in Sydney on 24 September 1955. He was also the captain for both of the 1956 Summer Olympic games.[7][9]

Later life and death

After retiring from soccer, Bignall became a greyhound trainer.[10][11]

Bignall died 11 August 2013 at the age of 91.[12]
