Blake Ayshford (born 15 April 1988) is an Australian professional rugby league player for the Wests Tigers in the Australian NRL competition. He can play at lock or centre.

Ayshford played junior football with the Paddington-Woollahra Tigers, representing the Junior Kangaroos in 2007 & New South Wales at an under 17s and under 19s level. In 2006 he played for Endeavour Sports High when they won the Arrive Alive Cup.

Before joining the Tigers, Ayshford was in lower grades with the Sydney Roosters. In 2008, he was named the Player's Player of the Year in the Wests Tigers' NYC side.

In June 2009, it was announced that Ayshford had signed a two-year contract to remain with the Tigers until the end of the 2011 season. Later that year he signed an extension to the end of the 2012 season.

At the end of the 2009 season, Ayshford was named the Wests Tigers Rookie of the Year.

Ayshford cemented his position in the centres in 2010, though the threat of being dropped saw an improved performance towards the end of the season. Before the start of the 2011 season, Ricky Stuart named Ayshford in a "Blues in Waiting" squad, for potential future NSW State of Origin players.
