I stole this from EFH but it is keeping me amussed so thought I would share.

"Well since this will probably turn out to be a very stupid thread, I thought I'd give it an appropriately stupid title.

I have a mate, who is aquainted with someone at The Eagles. (He says he's "freinds with" but I think it is more a common circle of friends type thing.) So he asked this guy who the Eagles were going to draft, Rich or Naitanui?
and of course "the guy" just laughed and said "wait and see." However when pressed for a "tip" he gave this cryptic clue, that there will another "Beau" at the club next year, giving us more "Beaus" than any other club.

I must confess that my first thought was that they've just hired a new window cleaner named Beau, but my mate is dead set. (That said, my mate was trying to tell me it was Beau Cassen, so his credibility isn't great.)

SO are there any Beaus in the draft, or whom we might look at for the rookie list?
(I doubt they'd have any certainty about a potential draftee, which makes me think that if true it must be a recycled rookie, someone in the PSD, or an off-field appointment.)"

I think his mate told him nothing but Wikes will be upgraded so we have 2 beaus -which we all know anyway but I tried to work on the cryptic side and thought ok what does Bow or Beau mean

A bow is a weapon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weapon) that projects arrows (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow) powered by the elasticity of the bow. As the bow is drawn (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawn), energy is stored in the limbs of the bow and transformed into rapid motion when the string is released, with the string transferring this force to the arrow. Bows are used for hunting (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowhunting) and sport (target shooting), and as a weapon of war (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War). - think this defines Rich

Beau
1.a frequent and attentive male companion.
2.a male escort for a girl or woman.
3.a dandy; fop.
–verb (used with object)
4.to escort (a girl or woman), as to a social gathering.

not much in that

Add a Bow -well another string to the Bow not that clear.

Anyway like I said just having some fun

You have over thought it IMO, its as easy as reading between the lines.

BOW as you put it could mean a range of things, right BUT if you break the word down into short form writing, like texting then you get a differant meaning.
IMO- In My Opinion
BRB- Be Right Back
LOL- Laugh Out Load

So if you put BOW in that form what position could you get.

BOW- Big Outside Wingman- Means Naitanui

Or could he have meant another Beau Waters type Player as in Hard at the Man and The Ball, or as in his Size then that would be RICH.

I think however the actual meaning to the Cryptic puzzle is your Friends Friend Doesn't Know Sh*t about who WCE are going to select.
