Hayden was one of the leading players in the Victorian Amateur Football Association before he came to Richmond, winning the Woodrow Medal in 1960, while playing for the University Blues.
A follower and key position player, he kicked 17 goals from 13 appearances for Richmond in 1962, his debut season.[1] He bettered that tally in 1963, with 25 goals from 15 games, enough to top Richmond's goal-kicking.[2] This included a personal best six goal haul, against South Melbourne at Lake Oval, one of just seven wins that he participated in over the course of his career.[1]
He badly injured himself in the second round of the 1964 VFL season, against Essendon, when he tore ligaments in his knee. After having a cartilage operation, Hayden returned to training in 1965 but broke down during a practise match in April. He was advised to stay off the football field for the rest of the year, in order to resume his career in 1966, fully recovered.[3] It however didn't work out and he was forced to retire.[4][5]
