Playing career

[edit]

Wooden made his first grade debut for the Northern Eagles in round 3 of the 2002 NRL season against South Sydney. Wooden played off the bench in the Northern Eagles 44-20 loss. Wooden played a total of six games for the club including their last ever game which came in round 26 against Penrith where they lost 68-28. Following the conclusion of the 2002 season, the merger between North Sydney and Manly was dissolved with Manly regaining the NRL licence ahead of the 2003 NRL season.
