I am absolutely stunned at those underrating Tony Shaw and Gavin Brown. There is a reason they both in our Team of the Century. Brown was a classical winger who had the most ferocious attack on the ball. His contested marking and ability to go forward and kick a goal as demonstrated in 90 was outstanding. He also had the ability to play on Gary Ablett Snr as a defender. There is a reason he won two E.J Whitten medals when playing at the highest level. He tore Darren Jarman apart when he was Captain of Victorian. Tony Shaw drove us to a flag and was rarely beaten as a midfielder. His courage and hardness meant that one on one he rarely lost. Two of our all time greats.
