Not long ago there was many a negative comment about young Shaw.
Six weeks in he is at the top of the Copeland votes you would have to say. I know alot of people are dirty on him for some reason or another, has he proven himself to you yet?
I think he is great with only a couple of little parts of his game to work on.

Agreed.
I think a heap of people are still having a dip at his disposal, but it hasn't been awful this year and he's winning his own footy and is trying to create.

FFS Clokey, there is almost one of these on Shaw every week now. The vast majority of people including myself have apologised to him time and time again and acknowledged that we were wrong! How many times can we say sorry to him.
Yes he has vastly improved himself and is on Brilliant form at the moment, and well done to him!

I must apologise for being a Shaw bagger for the past couple of seasons, and will happily admit that he's in his best form ever.
Having said that, I'm still not a big fan of his kicking. True he has turned the ball less often, but many kicks were nowhere effective either. To put simply, he's not dangerous enough. It's shame b/c he's the only player who has the ball frequent enough to potentially damage the opposition.
Until the day his kicking improves, he'd only be a good player for CFC. Like Lica, they both have big hearts, good work ethics, try their best, but in a game of footy, you need good techical skills to be a superstar.

Clokey's Irish: he's done it three times to be Shaw, to be Shaw, to be Shaw

7th in the AFL for disposals with 140, Judd is 6th with 141.... he's a good kid and one of the few for us who can break the lines

i think he is on the verge of taking the role as our number 1 midfielder.

His disposal is still shocking, but you can't knock his commitment.

Definitely up for a possible B&F. Let's hope HE doesn't get injured!

Oh why exclude him? The grim reaper lurks around most corners at the lexus centre.

Yes now that he is very important to the team he is due to get injured. Maybe the footy gods want to wait till he is unquestinoably a pivotal player, so as to maximize the pain. They must have a good laugh at Cwood supporters up there!
I always said Shaw would be good.
- As I have for another maligned player TEx - just needs to get over the marking yips and get a bit more experience.
