Nick Shaw (born 1 July 1978) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer who played as a five-eighth for the North Sydney Bears and the Balmain Tigers in the NRL in 1999.
This would be his only first grade appearance at the North Sydney Bears, as midway through the 1999 season, Shaw was released by Norths and subsequently joined the Balmain Tigers where he would play out the remainder of the season.
Shaw was left out of the side for Balmain's final ever first grade game against the Canberra Raiders at Bruce Stadium.
Balmain controversially merged with rivals the Western Suburbs Magpies to form the Wests Tigers as part of the NRL's rationalization strategy.
