The sad thing is (and I hope this happens), if another club picks him up I'm sure he'll be in their best 22 in 2018, and one of the most popular players with both his team-mates and their supporters.
At least he can be sure of one thing; if he does get back to Subi in another jumper, he's going to get a huge reception from every Freo fan.
(God I hope we're doing the right thing here. No Matt de Boer, no Chopper Mayne, no Micky Barlow, on top of Pav. Feels like the heart and soul of the club is being thrown away - it better be worth it).
