Tweetcap: Team GB Players React To Being Selected

Tweetcap!

Tweetcap!
With Chris Finch announcing his final 12 to represent Team GB at the Olympics yesterday, many of the players took to Twitter to express their joy (after they’d met the Prime Minister of course).

Check out the reactions below in our ‘tweetcap’ of the day!

Drew Sullivan

The GB captain congratulated all the players who made it and expressed his own delight.

Kyle Johnson

KJ tweeted a picture of himself in the Olympic kit with how honoured he feels (we’ll ignore the American spelling!)

 

Kieron Achara

Proud Scot Kieron Achara was inundated with congratulations and made sure he got the sponsor name-drop in there!

 

Andrew Lawrence

As the youngest player on the squad, Lawrence will be representing for the aspiring young player after coming out of nowhere last summer to take the team by storm.

 

Dan Clark

An extremely proud Clark expressed his pleasure.

 

Robert Archibald

Robert Archibald instead decided to congratulate fellow Scot Kieron Achara on making the squad. Classy move from the GB veteran.

Eric Boateng

Eric had to resort to Twitlonger to get his message of appreciation out.
