Toast Heath Shaw 300 games

[barrackers]

Congrats to Heath Shaw who's set to play his 300th game this week. While the move wasn't his choice and I would have liked to see him remain in the black and white, GWS has worked out well for him.

Collingwood - 173 games, 37 goals
GWS - 126 games, 2 goals

Awesome effort......I will always love him.

Congrats to Heath on the milestone. Premiership hero, and will always be a favourite of mine

Will join a very exclusive list. There's only been five 300 game V/AFL players who were magpies for at least part of their career:

• Gordon Coventry (306 Coll)
• Len Thompson (268 Coll, 20 SM, 13 Fitz)
• David Cloke (176 Rich, 114 Coll, 43 Rich)
• Tony Shaw (313 Coll)
• Paul Williams (189 Coll, 117 Syd)

Hopefully Shaw reenacts this someday in one of those legendary moment ads with Stephen Curry and Dave Lawson.

Well done to Heater it's a huge achievement the triple ton,player and club should have tried harder to ensure they were all in B/W

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Wonderful achievement.

Very good player.

One of those players who moved clubs and rejuvenated him - though he didn’t want to leave, was good for him as it turned out.

300 games a significant achievement.

 

[Kirby]

Well done Heater!

 

[TTRRAAVVIISS]

Tore us a new one last week, and should have been the third Shaw captain at Collingwood. Congrats and thanks for your greatness Heater!

 

[rand corp]

A great, a legend of our club, a champion, a premiership hero. Well done Heath Shaw on 300 games and an outstanding career.

 

[BEEG]

Always loved Heater well done champ.

Onya Shawry - Premiership hero. Will never forget that smother on Riewoldt

 

[Brad Goodman]

It's a shame he couldn't be Bucks's ten foot hoagie

 

[jmac70]

Sorry but I don’t care.

 

[TTRRAAVVIISS]

Sorry but I don’t care.

Oh yes that’s right, you love non premiership winning players more than those that have won a cup...

For those interested, GWS posted something very funny on Instagram about Shaw’s career.

It’s a shame Collingwood don’t celebrate and value Rat Pack types like GWS obviously do...

Congratulations to Heath Shaw on 300 games. Glad he is gone though. Obligation kick OBOTF every game and basket-case of a team mate with bi-weekly melt downs on the field to a national audience. Massive destabilising force at the club after Bucks took over. Once he retires I'll show him some love but until then I hope he is having fun in the downtown streets of Bankstown!

Very good, GWS are reaching though in their claims that Shaw "has hit career best form under the tutelage of Leon Cameron".

Love him. His game last week was one of the few things that put a smile on my face. Played a great game to beat a quality player, and still managed a couple of classic Shaw moments - a complete spray out on the full and that decision to try to volley the ball on the goal line. It was just a classic Shaw game.

 

[Go Woods]

Congratulations on reaching the magical 300 Heater, always a Pie in my eyes!

 

[Vicky Park]

Yeah, still love him, despite him being a pain in the butt. Fantastic achievement, great footballer, from a wonderful Collingwood family. His brother’s not too shabby either, in the coaching department.

Their Dad was one of my favourites.
