GET YOUR BOBO WILKES AVATAR HERE!

Full Name: BEAUFORD BEAUCEPHALUS BEAUREGARDE BEAUMONT WILKES III
Club: Railways/Claremont
DOB: 20 March 1986 (can get into Clubba anyway by virtue of playing for Claremont)
Hgt: 193cm
Wgt: 90kg
Position: Full Forward, though can play most key positions and played as a key defender in the U18s National Carnival

Interesting facts:

Holds the club record for most seasons on rookie list
Despite being named "Beau", does not like eating goldfish or hip-and-shouldering taxis
Is a symbol of Mr Burns' lost youth and innocence
Was for several years second only to David Wirrpanda in reverse alphabetical order however arrival of fellow rookie Callum Wilson has bumped him to third
Was born on the same day as my wife (though in a different year)
If the words "Wilkes" and "Waters" were put on the BigFooty swear filter, we would have to talk about "Beau W****s" and might get he and Beau Waters confused Natural Foot: Right

[SS_Fury]

Beau would like to welcome the other Beau and has issued this statement:
'Goldfish are an instant source of protein and essential fatty acids....bumping taxis keeps my shoulders in place'
Mr Waters will not be taking questions at this time, however hopes Mr Wilkes can play a senior game or two in 2008 and be a valuable addition to the WCE squad.

Anyone know how his preseason has gone? I can't see from here.

I think an update is due from his sponsor. Any news? Big year for Beau.

[SonOfReep]

He has just been elected King of Siam.

It took you two weeks to come up with that? Disappointed, Beau deserves better.:thumbsd:

When he was a kid he used to bite people.

ok seen as though i played colts footy with Beau (Wilkes that is) for the mighty Railways FC + follow what he's doing still i will update for you guy's.
Heard he had a very impressive game in the Claremont intra club match wich saw him selected for his first hit out in wiggles colours down here in his home town.
I didn't go but the report from the boys was he held his own very well down back taking some good marks + his possesions were clean, while not been put to shame by the likes of Rocca + maxwell.
All reports i heard where impressive without been extraudinary.
Good luck to Bozzo this year + i wish him all the best, I know personally he was extactic to join the eagles after supporting you guys for some reason all his life :thumbsu:

Thanks mate.

A smokey to make his debut early this year I think.

With Mitch Brown out, we can elevate a rookie. McKenzie, Schofield and Brown were probably all ahead of him in the pecking order. Now it's between him and Spangher for a spot that I think will be made available.

[SonOfReep]

In other news, with Kerr suspended, Hunter, Hurn, Cox, Glass, Butler, Priddis, Brown, Wirrpanda, Lynch, Hansen, Embley, Fletcher, Brett Jones, Chad Jones, Forgetful Jones all doubtful Wilkes has been pencilled in to play the entire backline and midfield against the Blues. And forwardline and ruck division as well

Beaucephalus set to make his debut against the Cows!

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Beau!

I predict he will take Burton and restrict the Birdman to 0.1 kicks.

Pretty close, whoever he played on :)

[Lion El'Johnson]

I think he rotated on Tippet with Glass. They kept him quiet. Had good composure and accurate kicking out of defence. Will be interesting to see how he goes against Collingwood, and the bigger bodied Rocca.
