Biography:
After starting out for Australian sides Canberra and Carlton, Grella made the move overseas to the country of his parents birth, Italy, in 1998 where the tough-tackling midfielder made a name for himself.
His first club in Europe was Empoli before he moved onto Parma then he secured a transfer to Torino in the summer of 2007.
August 2008 saw the Australian international arrive on British shores, signing for Rovers on a four-year-deal for an undisclosed fee, but thus far his appearances for Rovers have been too few and far between as a series of niggling injuries have prevented Vince from getting an extended run in the side.
Started the World Cup in Australia's starting line-up for the game against Germany, but injury prevented him from playing any further part in the Socceroo's disappointing campaign.
