Centreman Reg Shaw played 74 VFA games for Brunswick in the late 1940s, winning the club's best and fairest award in 1947. In addition, he finished 3rd in the Liston Trophy voting in both 1948 and 1949. In 1951 he became disillusioned with life with the Magpies and crossed to Preston where he added a final nine VFA appearances. Reg Shaw's sons Neville, Ray and Tony all went on to enjoy senior football careers at the top level.
