Shaw has not yet shown what it takes to make regular senior football. He has had injury and struggled with that. He looks the sort but so to did Chad Liddell and Brad Oborne, if given another chance next year he may step up, but he may not, who knows.

Seeing him pre draft I thought he was one of the most exciting prospects I'd seen in ages. Since then he has taken a while to develop. He has pace and can kick a goal. He doesn't play very accountable and can get caught when he runs with the ball.

I still think he is worth persevering with but he will have show definate signs this comming season. Hopeless is a bit of a harsh call I think. In any case, I don't like such harsh words used re oour players. If they can't play, then I don't mind saying so but there is line we shouldn't cross somewhere - just that's the line is a little blurrey at times.

he's livin off a name. Has a terrific turn of speed no doubt but isn't as hard as his namesake's and doesn't have the skills or ability to read the play to make up for. Absolutely no left foot and only a modest right foot

He has silky skills but he is too small. Though we might be able to make something out of him if we make him go under heavy weight training. He could turn into a tank.

his skills are below par. he can run, but thats about it. he looked the good early, but has fallen away!

I am unable to really say anything about Shaw as I have not seen much of him.I will make one point though, surely he can't be any better than Scotty. We have ruined this kid as he is begging to leave. From reading other posts about shaw u all seem to think disposal lets him down. I SAY TO COLLINGWOOD KEEP SCOTLAND HE WILL BE A FUTURE SUPERSTAR!!!!
