Eden began his career with the Eastern Suburbs club as a centre in 1969 before moving to the St. George Dragons where he played in the front row.
He played three seasons with the Dragons between 1971–1973 and was a member of St George first grade team that was defeated by South Sydney in the 1971 Grand Final.
He was a member of the St. George Third Grade side that won the premiership in 1972. Harry Eden played his last two seasons with South Sydney Rabbitohs in 1974 and 1975. He was the uncle of Rothmans Medal winner Michael Eden.
