The Deniliquin Football Club, nicknamed the Rams, is an Australian Rules Football club playing in the Murray Football League.

Football appears to have been played in and around Deniliquin as early as the 1870s, but today's Deniliquin Football Club was born some six decades later, in 1933. The club is based in the town of Deniliquin located in the Riverina district of New South Wales.

Deniliquin joined the Murray Football League in 1949.

Several Deniliquin players have gone on to play in the Victorian and Australian Football Leagues (VFL and AFL), including Leo Barry and Peter McIntyre. Additionally, former VFL footballers including Graham Ion, Kevin O'Donnell and Peter O'Donohue have coached Deniliquin.
