Report Card: Mid-Season (Round 11) - by Dave68

The most improved this year and has continued his great form since my last analysis in round 5. Has steadily developed himself into a vital element of our midfield, providing a lot of run off half back. He is the pace we sorely needed around round 5 and his disposal is genuinely on the improve. With 50 games now behind him, Rhyce should be just about ready to reach his peak form and is probably the Copeland Trophy favorite after James Clement from the opening 11 rounds. His best year by far and has a vital role in our midfield. Should continue this form and can hopefully develop into a Chris Judd like player. Rhyce is 3rd in marks with 62, 4th in disposals with 212 and has 138 kicks which sees him in 5th spot. These stats show him ability to get loose. Rhyce is also developing into a good tagger who can shut down players like mcleod, judd or wells who have a bit of extra pace.

Fan Files: Player Profile: by Johnson#26
 
2005:
The pacy Shaw was under the media microscope for much of the year, but tagged Brisbane nemesis Jason Akermanis out of the game in round 16. Tried hard all the way through the year, and is looking towards a huge 2005.

2004:
The son of former Collingwood skipper Ray Shaw, Rhyce was drafted under the father-son rule in 1999.
He made his debut late in 2000 impressing with his speed and flair. He also scored two goals in his second match against the Crows. After playing the opening match of 2001, Shaw was banished to the reserves for making costly mistakes and wasn’t seen for the rest of the season.
In 2002, Shaw was not sighted in the senior team as the Pies made a charge to the Grand Final.
2003 was a make or brake season for Shaw and he took it with both hands. Impressing all with his pace from defence, Shaw nailed down a spot on the back flank for most of the year. Shaw also impressed Collingwood fans, by waring the initials BR on the back of his jumper, as a mark of respect for ailing club champion Bob Rose, who would pass away later in the season.
After a great Preliminary Final against Port, Shaw was primed for the Grand Final, however, it was a disaster. Shaw fumbled, slipped, missed targets and dropped marks and the Lions ran all over the Pies to win y 50 points.
Shaw was the subject of much criticism early in 2004, with claims he’d never be good at AFL level again after a dismal performance in round one against Richmond.
But Shaw made it back to the seniors midway through the year, being played as a tagger and quelling Eagles star Chris Judd. Shaw again made headlines when his uncle Tony Shaw suggested on radio 3AW that Rhyce would be better off leaving the club.
