Player in the 1944 Fitzroy Premiership Clen Charles Denning (28 February 1911 – 9 November 2009) was an Australian rules footballer in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Soon after he turned 16, Denning played for Victorian Football Association (VFA) club Oakleigh.
Early in his career, Denning made a name for himself as a promising goalkicker; he scored six goals from his first six kicks—all in his first match—a record that stands to this day.
He represented Victoria at interstate football in 1941, and in 1944 he was back pocket in Fitzroy's premiership side.
[6] From the October 2009 death of Jimmy Bates until his own death, at Keysborough, Victoria on 9 November 2009, at 98 years old, he was the oldest living former VFL player, and last surviving member of the 1944 Fitzroy premiership team.
