In limbo....Joel Griffiths in action for Beijing Guoan (Getty)
翻译择要：回到澳洲后的大格声称去留国安主决权已经不在他的手中，但是他认为如果能在中国再效力一个赛季会是让自己被选入澳洲国家队很好的一个平台。无论他在Newcastle Jets还是中国，只要能继续进球，就能够有机会被招入国家队。现在还有九个月的时间，什么皆有可能。
他在描述在北京的经验为“大开眼界”和“极好的经历”，但遗憾的是自己被禁赛,最后那场只能在场边观看弟弟帮助国安4-0打败杭州，在六万球迷面前夺冠。
大格的经纪人 John Denison，认为如果国安真有诚意的话，Con Constantine (Jets 老板)还是有可能降底原来的$330，000租借额。正是因为大格被中国足协禁赛七场的缘故，这意味着大格被禁到明年一月二十四日，才能出场对阵悉尼俱乐部，而这赛季只能打上四场，一直闲置到2010九月A-League开始，俱乐部每月还得掏出$25,000。如果大格与国安续约的话，这项费用就能免去。
。。。。最终结果还是要等到这个月尾才能分晓。

Nine goals in 17 starts made Griffiths Beijing’s joint top scorer – and there would surely have been more but for two lengthy bans totalling 12 games, the second of which still has three games to run.

Back in Australia to resolve his future amid a backdrop of demands from Newcastle Jets owner Con Constantine that Beijing will need to pay a $A1million transfer fee to get him back to Asia, G 阅读全文>>
