McKenzie was born in Durban, South Africa and played two games at Melbourne before being cleared to VFA side Footscray in early 1915.
His career was interrupted when he enlisted with the army, but after his service ended he won two premierships with Footscray in 1919 and 1920 before returning to the VFL for three years as a ruckman with St Kilda from 1922 to 1924. In 1927 he was on the St Kilda committee and an applicant for their coaching position. When George Haines was selected as coach he resigned from the committee.
