Blackburn's Griffiths considers representing Wales

Blackburn Rovers youngster Rostyn Griffiths is having thoughts about representing Wales. On-loan to English League Two club Accrington Stanley, the young Aussie has not ruled out representing Wales at U21 level.

Griffiths' grandfather is Welsh which gives him the option of playing for Wales or Australia.

"I'm having a bit of a think at the moment about what to do but we'll have to see. No-one's made a definite move for me yet," Griffiths told the Lancashire Telegraph.

"I know that Wales haven't got any more serious games until next year, March time I think.

"But Australia have got friendlies all the time with the Under 23s and the first team.

"The problem, obviously, is with Australia being so far away.

"So unless they're playing over in Europe the difficulty is getting there. But I've got a meeting with them soon so we'll see what happens."
