Heath Shaw will put the boots on for East Keilor in the Essendon District Football League in 2021.
Shaw was not offered a contract by GWS at the conclusion of the 2020 season bringing down the curtain on a superb 17-year career.
The 35-year-old explained the connection that led to him signing with East Keilor.
âIâd been approached by a few clubs but the reason why I signed with East Keilor was a mate of mine coaches there, âBig Patâ, Iâve known him for over 10 years,â Shaw told
SENâs Bob and Andy.
âFunny story, me and a few of my fellow âRat Packâ friends went to his sonâs 18th birthday party and everyone does their speeches and Pat was doing his speech and it was pretty average.

The Organisational Council for Greek National Day is made up of representatives from all of Victoria’s major Greek Organisations and has been busy planning and programming the events to commemorate the 200th Anniversary of the 1821 Greek Revolution.
The 25 March 1821 commemoration is of religious and national importance for Hellenism. Greeks around the globe celebrate the Annunciation of Our Lady (Evangelismos) as well as the proclamation of the Modern Hellenic State 200 years ago – a very important milestone.
This Commemoration of the Bicentenary of Modern Greece gives the Greek Australian community of Victoria, the Paroikia, the opportunity to promote, educate and enhance the knowledge and understanding of what happened in 1821 to our third, fourth and subsequent generations of Greek Australians. In this way, we can ensure the significance of the important historical event is not lost.
