I was pushed out of Collingwood: Shaw

[ShriekingShack]

Former Collingwood player and premiership star Heath Shaw has opened up on how he was forced out of Collingwood. He says that certain people made sure that he was pushed out. He also opened up on his dislike of Nathan Buckley, saying that he wouldn't even answer the phone if Bucks called him. He added that there were other individuals at Collingwood that he also wanted nothing to do with.

What do you think? Was Shaw forced from Collingwood? Was he the problem, or was Buckley?

In other news water is wet.

I thought Heath Shaw left Collingwood for the Giants to win a flag, sounds eerily familiar.

 

[robbos13]

loved shawry when he played for us but he thought his s**t didn't stink towards the end and behaved like a child, and wouldn't curb his behaviour

bucks was probably too strong at the time getting rid of any trouble makers in his view but at the same time shawry deserved his wack.

cant have ongoing bitter relationships.

best result for both parties

Shaw was a liability in his last year at the pies. That was a classic win win trade

He's said this many times. Fake news.

“It’s gotten more and more as I’ve got older, that sort of deep thinker, a bit more emotional, a bit more caring,” he said.

“I think if you’re close to me then you understand that"

“When I played at Collingwood, you either hate Collingwood or you love Collingwood. I think I’m sort of the same — you either hate me or you love me"


Sounds like a knob

Sort of makes me want a Pies premiership before the Giants with Shaw win one.

Sounds a bit like matty scarlett, minus the caring bit

 

[PieLebo87]

I thought this was common knowledge...?

 

[Banyo Bloods]

He doesn't see anything wrong with umpires being touched to demonstrate a response. Fortunately he is not one to get riled up in the heat of the moment and go over the top or anything.

Might have been better to come out with the Collingwood stuff when they didn't seem to be a cohesive unit.

To be fair I don't mind his passion but what's to gain with this.

He had a good mentor.

 

[Damon_3388]

TBH, Shaw made his own bed with his behaviour and attitude. His performance was suffering because of it, which will obviously lessen the coach and club's tolerance. He wasn't wronged in any way, and both clubs got something positive out of his trade.

There's no good guys or bad guys in the situation, but it doesn't put Shaw in the right or on the moral high ground to be acting like he was hard done by, and claiming that he wouldn't give certain individuals the time of day, nearly five years on.

As others have said, not really sure what there is to gain from going public with this now. He's entitled to feel how he feels, but surely we've all moved on by now?

 

[Woody15]

I can imagine him being a very, very difficult teammate at times.

Shaws coaching record was poor. 4 seasons with a best 10th place finish and 11th,13th and a spoon

From an outsider perspective i thought Pies managed his departure as a favourite son well enough - called time on his career with 6 or so games to go on season and Shaw did right thing by club by seeing it out with respect.

 

[gavaniacono]

If you cant accept the new regime and the new methods, best to * off.

Terrif player though Heath Shaw and hard to replace.

 

[OniAu]

Was toxic in his last year. Has gone on to grow at GWS, think its been a great trade for both clubs

I love the aggression and never say die attitude Taylor brings to pies

It's not new, he's said it many times.

Shaw was melting down before our very eyes in that Elimination Final vs. Port. Was loud and clear after that (if it wasn't beforehand) that his race at the club was run.

I think it was Hird.

 

[good4footy]

His goose was cooked when his response to the club setting certain criteria for his behaviour, was to go on one of the footy shows and say..'nah i won't be changing anytime soon'.

Is 'fake news' really what you're trying to say?

I recall Tony Shaw having a stint on 3AW I think it was sports show a few years back and he was somewhat ridiculously commenting on the 2010 World Cup with all the insights Tony can offer. He did acknowledge though he wasnt right across the world game and admitted to never seeing a goal scored while watching a game of soccer.
