Jeff Denman (born 14 June 1943) is an Australian former rugby league player.

A speedy three-quarter from Ipswich, Denman was a Queensland interstate player through much of the 1960s and represented the Australia national team on a 1969 tour of New Zealand.[1][2]

Denman played his rugby league in Brisbane for Eastern Suburbs, scoring eight tries in finals.[3] After coming close to signing with Cronulla-Sutherland in 1969, Denman went on to feature as a winger for Eastern Suburbs in their 1972 Brisbane Rugby League grand final win over Fortitude Valley.[4]
