Tony Shaw
Anthony 'Tony' Shaw (born 23 July 1960) is a former Australian rules footballer, coach and media personality.
Playing career
Shaw was recruited to Collingwood from Reservoir-Lakeside to make his debut in 1977 alongside brother Ray. He was a small midfielder at 170 cm who didn't have the natural ability or quality skills of others but his courage and determination made him a fine rover. He did struggle in his early years to cement a senior position in the team. Shaw played in the 1980–1981 losing Grand Final sides.
In 1984, Shaw won the Copeland Trophy as the Magpies best and fairest player for the season, as well as playing with second brother Neville. After another couple seasons of the club failing to make the finals, Shaw took over the captaincy left by Mark Williams in 1987, but the side failed in the new-look competition, finishing 12th.
In 1990, Shaw captained the club to a historic premiership, the club's first in 32 years, defeating Essendon. Shaw's 35 touches saw him earn the Norm Smith Medal as best on ground. In the same season, Shaw won his second Copeland Trophy.
Tony Shaw (rugby union)
Anthony Alexander Shaw is an Australian former rugby union player. A Queensland state and national representative flanker, Shaw captained the national side consistently from 1978 to 1981.
Early life and style
Tony Shaw was born 23 March 1953 in Brisbane, Queensland. His early rugby was played at St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace in Brisbane. He was a proficient water-polo played and represented for Queensland in that sport.
Shaw's greatest rugby success was achieved at flanker, he was a hard driving forward who lead from the front and was an outstanding rucker and mauler. Howell asserts that although the standard of Australian representative sides during the early 1970s was less than consistently world-class, Shaw would have been competitive in the best All Black packs of that and any other era. Howell regards him as a cunning line-out technician would could outwit taller and more spring-heeled opponents. Queensland packs containing Shaw and Mark Loane dominated their New South Wales rivals in the late 1970s.

Famous quotes by Tony Shaw:
Slow
Boy, what you know, is what you know
And the kisses... till your heart go numb
Chorus:
My heart beats slowly
My heart beats slowly
And my heart beats slowly
My heart beats slow!
Slow down that you're here
...my hand gone, my hand gone
Baby, I am here now,
You're trying to have no fear
When you're around this hotel
Listen to me clear now, clear now
Baby, I am here now!
Chorus: (x2)
My heart beats slowly
My heart beats slowly
And my heart beats slowly
My heart beats slow!
..only you can bring me to me
Baby, I'm falling, I'm falling
Can't you here me calling, calling
Yeah, yeah, yeah what you gonna do?
Better slow down, baby make it all last
Making it in the deep night, the deep night
Baby, I don't feel like, I feel like
Chorus:
My heart beats slowly,
My heart beats slowly,
And my heart beats slowly!
And what you know, is what you know
And the ...till your heart goes numb!
My heart beats slowly,
And my heart beats slowly!
Come on, baby, touch my body
Never stop it!
I'm gonna ride it all for you
I've been waiting all day
I can ride you, baby
But you make my heart slow
Chorus: (x2)
My heart beats slowly,
My heart beats slowly,
And my heart beats slowly!
And what you know, is what you know
And the kisses...till your heart goes numb!
My heart beats slowly,
And my heart beats slowly!
