Guy Shepherdson (born 17 February, 1982 in Jakarta, Indonesia) is an Australian rugby union footballer. He was born in Jakarta as his father worked as a diplomat with the Australian Embassy, though he was then raised in Canberra and educated at Canberra Grammar School. His usual position is at tight-head prop. He currently plays for the Brumbies in the international Super 14 competition, and has played for the national team, the Wallabies.

He was a member of the Brumbies Academy squad in 1997. He played for the Australian Schoolboys in 1999 and went onto represent Australia at the under-19 and under-23 level. He went onto complete two stints with the Bay of Plenty in the National Provincial Championship in New Zealand. Sheperdson made his Super 12 debut for the Brumbies in 2004, against a New Zealand team, the Auckland Blues in Canberra. He went on to earn another 13 caps for the Brumbies during that season.

He was included in new Australian coach John Connolly's squad for the Wallabies' 2006 mid-year rugby test series. He went onto make his international debut on June 24, against Ireland at Subiaco Oval in Perth.
