In an interview with the Sunday Times newspaper last week, Eagles chairman Alan Cransberg stated that Worsfold would be re-signed with the club if the 2006 premiership coach wanted to continue.
Worsfold was amused by the interest Cransberg’s comments generated on the eastern seaboard.
"In the east? What do they care? They really care that much?" Worsfold asked.
"All I can say is that I'll either be coaching next year here or I won't be.
"People can create talk and they can take punts. It doesn't faze me.
"Come October I'll sit down with ‘Nizzy’ (Trevor Nisbett) and Alan (Cransberg) and talk about where the club wants to go."
Worsfold was happy with his team's 70-point win over the Western Bulldogs last Sunday, more particularly with the Eagles’ ability finish the game off after fading out of four of their first five matches.
"A lot more pleased with the consistency of performance,” Worsfold said.
"We had a bad drop away against Port Adelaide; really over two weeks we've had a poor one and a good one.
"What we want to see now is something over a long period of time that's heading the way we want it to."
Worsfold said Nic Naitanui had pulled up well from his first match back after groin surgery in the off-season.
The 23-year-old started as the substitute in Sunday’s win, playing around 40 minutes after coming on in the third quarter.
"We've been given the OK that he can play 90 minutes this week, which is basically a full game,” Worsfold said.
"It's about what he would play on average last year, maybe 100 minutes last year. So that's good news."
Worsfold said there were no issues with playing Naitanui, Dean Cox and Callum Sinclair in the same side if necessary against the Brisbane Lions on Saturday.
"We can comfortably; whether we will or not, we're weighing that up,” he said.
"That's not too much different to the way we structured up the last three or four years with ‘Lynchy’ (Quentin Lynch) out there.
"Lynch, (Jack) Darling, (Josh) Kennedy and Naitanui, or Cox, have spent a lot of time in our forward line and it's contributed to function really well."
Luke Shuey sat out the last quarter against the Bulldogs with a calf problem, but Worsfold expected the young midfielder to travel to Brisbane.
"At the moment we're treating it as a cork,” Worsfold said.
"Our expectations are at this stage he'll be right to play."
Beau Waters (adductor) and Sam Butler (calf) were ruled out on Monday, but Adam Selwood and Matt Rosa have come into contention after strong performances in the WAFL.
Worsfold said Rosa, who was an emergency last weekend, had been unlucky given Bradd Dalziell's form.
"You could say that last week he held his spot in the side due to his form being so good,” Worsfold said of Dalziell.
"I've been really pleased with what Bradd's offered us.
"He's played his role for us exactly as we've asked him the last couple of weeks."
