WEST Coast coach Adam Simpson says he will meet with Eagles vice-captain Scott Selwood on Wednesday to discuss his playing future.
Selwood became a restricted free agent on Tuesday and it appears increasingly likely that he will leave the Eagles, having been heavily linked with a move home to Geelong.
The Eagles announced on Tuesday evening that three players, youngster Dylan Main and rookies Rowen Powell and Will Maginness, had been delisted.
But Simpson told Perth radio station 6PR on Tuesday night that no other formal discussions had taken place with the players since the Grand Final.
Missing Grand Final no issue for Eagle
"We've stuck together the last few days," Simpson said.
"We're going to review the game tomorrow, which is going to be tough and then we've got our best and fairest on Friday, and that might be the day we actually reflect on the year.
"With Scott, I haven't spoken to him. I'm going to meet the players tomorrow.
"So we'll go through that process in the next couple of days. It's going to be a pretty busy trade period for a lot of clubs. It'll be unprecedented I think."
Simpson was pleased that both Lewis Jetta and Jack Redden had shown interest in moving to West Coast although he said he had not met with either player.
"That will be in the coming weeks if we go down that path," he said.
"There are a few other options around that we're looking at as well.
"We're really pleased that there's players putting their hand up saying they want to come to our club.
That's a really pleasing fact that we can deal with some of the players that want to do that."
Simpson was still coming to grips with the Grand Final loss to Hawthorn and he was bitterly disappointed that his players had not been able to execute on the day.
But he said it would be a mistake to make wholesale changes to the game-plan on the back of one bad performance.
"One thing we can't do is go into a knee-jerk reaction and decide that everything we're doing is not working because of one really bad performance, albeit it was a big one," Simpson said.
He believed the list was in very good shape to improve but said there were no guarantees that the Eagles would return to the Grand Final next year.
Simpson said he would have some challenges reshaping the defense next season when Eric Mackenzie and Mitch Brown returned from their knee injuries.
"That's going to be a new challenge for us, how we fit Eric Mackenzie and Mitch Brown back into our side and what we do with some of our players," Simpson said.
"I think we'll adapt but there might be some more teething that we've got to get through to get to that really good space that we were in this year."
Simpson also hinted that Jeremy McGovern could be moved forward next year.
"I think we'll train him up as a forward at some stage over the pre-season and it's difficult to predict where he's going to play because he keeps telling me his best position is in the ruck," Simpson said.
"So we'll wait and see on that one, but he's got the ability to play at both ends and that's a really good asset for us.
"We need to get his body right and durable because if he's to have an impact in this competition he needs to play 20 games plus per season. At the moment he's not doing that."
