Walton played his early football at Trinity College (Gawler) and Central District, prior to being selected by St Kilda with pick 16 of the 1997 National Draft.[2] He didn't play senior football in 1998 but made 18 league appearances in the 1999 AFL season, as a utility player.[3] Over the next two seasons he added just five more games to his tally and was delisted.[3]
He returned to Central District after his AFL career ended and in 2004 he began playing for another SANFL club, North Adelaide.
