## Playing career

Madden made his first grade debut for North Sydney in 1955 and played 2 seasons with the club before leaving at the end of 1956. Due to the residency rules at the time, Madden was not eligible to play for Manly so he was forced to sit out the 1957 season before moving to the Manly district.

In 1959, Manly reached their third grand final against St George. Madden played at five-eighth in the grand final as St George kept Manly scoreless winning their 4th straight premiership 20–0. This would prove to be Madden's last game for Manly and he retired following the grand final defeat.
