So it begins.

Indeed - this isn't Griff talking to them of course, but his agent just testing the waters should he not get on offer in China.

All is fair in love and war.

Do we have squad room ? Does Tinks want to put up for an Aussie marquee ?

Much of this is out of our hands.

sack jesic and/or gallaway, give griff a squad spot using aus marquee wages.

i don't think hsg truly appreciates how much the fans want griff, and how much they could get away with if they did sign him

So many think he is our best off season signing bar Heskeytime yet I rate Goody Brillante Taggz and Mitchy Cooper to be better signings than Brown.

Are you saying that GVE need only say we want Griffo and HSG will foot the bill no questions asked ?

If that's the case then GVE should make it happen so we can destroy this competition

Having a forward line of R.Griffo, J.Griffo, Heskey, Brown, Goody - who would miss out and what forward formation?

Play Tagz in there as well and we can have a 6 man forward line and take the comp by storm.

Move Goodwin to LB, we don't need to worry about conceding with that frontline.

RW Brown

RS Griff
LS Heskey then Taggart when Heskey retires.

Zads bossing the midfield, u are kidding right. Zadkovich and Mitchell have been pathetic he last 2 weeks and you would have him there ahead of wheelhouse, wow. All zads is good for is firing the other team up by acting like a delusional cock then proceeding to give the ball to them every time he gets it.

Big fan of Rubes but this year he has been a bit below par. Always gives 100% though and expect him to be killin it very soon.

I don't think we will have to worry about where to play Goodwin if Griffo comes back. Because I'll predict that the transfer payment we get for Goodwin in January will most likely be used to fund Griffos return.

Or maybe not.

Griffiths denies WSW rejection

Joel Griffiths has laughed off reports that he was rejected by Western Sydney Wanderers.
Jones on guard against NewcastleMcDonald continues good formGriffiths goal wraps up his CSL season
Claims surfaced in a Sydney newspaper last week that the Shanghai Shenhua striker - who has been playing alongside UEFA Champions League winner Didier Drogba this season in the Chinese Super League - had been knocked back as a potential signing by Wanderers coach Tony Popovic.

But the former Newcastle Jets and Beijing Guoan fans' favourite - the scorer of six goals in 17 games in an injury-curtailed season for Shanghai - tells a different story.

He describes the assertion that he had been knocked back by the A-League newcomer as 'funny' and declared the club had 'begged' him to sign.

"There was certainly a chance of me going to Western Sydney and I found the article claiming that I wasn't wanted by them actually quite funny, considering they were hounding me to come back and sign for them," he said.

"I was disappointed with the suggestion that the club weren't interested because they were begging me to come to an agreement.

"Through an agent I know in Sydney we had numerous discussions with Wanderers on salaries and what-not and the reality is that I couldn't drop below a certain price.

"So when I read that they weren't interested it made me laugh in one sense and disappointed me in another way because the truth is far from that.

"I'd had several lengthy discussions with the club and I know that the club had meetings with FFA (its owner) on the issue. I wish Wanderers well but was not impressed with what was written."

Griffiths, who quit the Jets for Beijing Guoan in 2008, earned a reported $1 million for his single season at Shanghai, which underachieved despite the presence of Nicolas Anelka and Drogba, finishing the season on Saturday with a 3-0 win over Qingdao Jonoon but having to be content with 10th on the ladder.

Griffiths, 32, who scored Shanghai's third against Qingdao Jonoon, is now looking forward to a short break back in Australia before, in all likelihood, committing to a new contract at Shanghai or elsewhere in the Chinese Super League.

"I'll decide what to do in December but I am more than happy to stay in China another year. I am comfortable here and enjoy the country and its culture," he said.

"If Shanghai want me then I am happy to talk or there are other possibilities also in China. Shanghai will wait and see who comes and goes before making a decision on making another offer and I am also in contact with several other clubs. I have told everybody I will make a decision after my holiday next month."

Despite finishing the season strongly, Griffiths missed three months of the campaign through a knee injury and admits it took its toll.

"It's the longest period of time I have been out for in my career and it was incredibly frustrating," he said. "I wasn't sure what to do about it times and wasn't always sure whether I could fully depend on what the Chinese doctors and physios were telling me.

"But I am over it now and I enjoyed the last part of the season playing in behind Didier Drogba. I always thought I could do a good job there and I think I will be bigger and better next year."

As for the future of former Chelsea star Drogba in China, Griffiths revealed: "I don't think he knows himself right now whether he will go or stay. We spoke about it just the other night.

"He still has a contract and it all depends I suppose on salaries and what happens there."

So "there was a chance" of him going to WSW. But doesn't look like he wants to come home just yet.

The big question is who he wants to come home to?
