only fitness concerns for Saturdays away game against Gold Coast

LONDON -- Every athlete should have a fan as devoted as #OlympicNan.The grandmother of British swimmer Adam Peaty has become a champion tweeter as she gushes about his achievements. With a Twitter biography that describes herself as Proud Nan to a World Champion Breaststroker, Mavis Williams, 74, is gaining followers who use the word adorable to describe her passion for Peaty.What race oooo Im so proud hes a gladiator well done, she tweeted with such glee that she dispensed with punctuation after he broke the world record in the 100-meter breaststroke in Saturdays heats. She stamped it with the British flag, shamrocks and clapping hands.She was back on Twitter after Peaty broke that record again and took home gold Sunday night in the same event. My Grandson has done it, she tweeted.Williams, who is from Uttoxeter, a town of 14,000 about 120 miles (200 kilometers) northwest of London, said she was introduced to Twitter by her daughter, Caroline, Adams mother. Her only goal was to get more followers than Caroline.You dont go out as much as you do when you were younger, now do you? she told The Associated Press on Sunday. Its given me a new interest and kept my brain working.Williams has, with a few hundred tweets and retweets, managed to capture attention with a simple chronicle of Peatys Olympic journey from her perspective.Theres the buildup to Rio. Theres a picture of her at this years aquatics championships at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park next to some sort of mascot creature named Ray. Theres a picture of her beloved Adam in his Olympic uniform.Doesnt my grandson look great in his Great Britain KIT, tweeted Williams, whose Twitter handle is Mavise42Mavis.Theres even a thank you to the person who helped decorate her home in preparation for the games.Im ready for Rio now thanks to my kind window cleaner who put my bunting up, she tweeted.Mostly, shes so proud shes bursting. She thinks her tweets help Adam and the team -- just to let them know their fans are pulling for them from far away.But her chronicle is also a reminder that those behind the athletes are sometimes on as much of a journey as the competitors themselves. And no matter how many followers she gets, when her friendly competition with Caroline is over, she plans to send out a thank-you tweet to all the people who decided to follow her. Theyve taught her a lot, after all.I think its nice to thank someone -- even if it is just a tweet, she said. Farid Diaz Jersey . Louis Cardinals.

Motivated by pundits who suggest they rely on talent alone, GWS Giants want to be recognised for their toughness and getting their hands dirty in AFL combat.The second-placed Giants are poised to embark on their maiden finals campaign in their fifth season.They are captivating critics with their speed, fluency and high scoring, but clearly resent the suggestion their rise was an inevitability given the amount of high draft picks they have had.When people say `its just a talented team, this was bound to eventuate, it is motivation for us because weve worked hard, Giants midfielder Josh Kelly said on Wednesday.We want to be a tough team, we want to be known for our toughness, contested footy, tackling.Giants coach Leon Cameron conceded the team probably fluked some wins on talent alone in the past.The good thing about our improvement this year is that we want to get our hands dirty, Cameron said.You cant win if you dont get your hands dirty. You might fluke a few games and we probably did a couple last year with some of the talent on our list, but you cant constantly rock up every week and think that you can fluke wins.Cameron said ruckman Rory Lobb (knee) and midfielder Dylan Shiel (soreness) were the only fitness concerns for Saturdays away game against Gold Coast.ddddddddddddHe expected both to play unless they had a setback on Friday.Cameron anticipated having pleasant selection headaches with a rapidly diminishing injury list and around 40 players to choose from.Defender Aidan Corr and midfielder Jacob Hopper are set to return in the NEAFL this week after long-term injuries and backup ruckman Tom Downie is also available again.Cameron doubted GWS would consider resting players over the last four rounds.We cant afford to rest players because sometimes you can just get out of rhythm, he said.Neither Cameron or Kelly was overly concerned if the Giants were forced by the AFL to play a home final against Sydney at ANZ Stadium rather than Spotless Stadium.We love Spotless, weve played some good footy there, but thats out of our control and were happy to play anywhere, Kelly said.Cameron concurred.Whether its Spotless, whether its ANZ.... youve got to play good tough footy, Cameron said.
