The captain of the Brighton side was recruited midway through 1905 and given a debut in the last round of the season when the side were trialling several juniors. Denton was forced out of the game with a broken jaw in the first quarter and did not play for Melbourne again. He was cleared back to Brighton in May 1906.

Denton enlisted in the Army in 1915 and served in the 32nd Battalion during World War I.
