Yes I know that, thank you.
I was not clear. I did read his "declaration" as "you trade me I retire". I read it as you trade me I don't go and force your hand to suspend me (if the CBA allows, I don't know). I must viewing it differently, I have no issue with him retiring in his final year, if that is how the contract reads.
