Club career

Pasfield was understudy to Clint Bolton at Sydney FC in the A-League during the 2005–06 and 2006–07 seasons, but failed to take the pitch in a competitive match. He joined NSWPL club Sydney United on loan during Sydney FC's AFC Champions League 2007 campaign, the move made permanent at the close of the group stage when he was released from the A-League side.[3]

Seeking a return to the top flight, he recently trialled at Newcastle Jets, and was named as a backup to first choice Ante Čović for the Jets A-League Pre-season Cup games. He has been training with Queen's Park Rangers in the Championship alongside veteran Australian goalkeeper, Mark Bosnich.[4]

On 4 December, he signed a six-week short-term deal with the Newcastle Jets, replacing the injured Ben Kennedy.

In 2009 Pasfield joined fledgling A-League club, North Queensland Fury.[5]

Thanks to FFA dragging its feet with the decision on what amount of the club's annual losses it was willing to fund, Pasfield decided to move onto the Central Coast Mariners at the end of the 2010/11 season, bringing to an end his time at the Fury, where he became one of the crowd favourites.
