It was Monday, the same day former Eagle Ben Cousins resumed training in Perth that Alan Didak and Heath Shaw sent the Lexus Centre into damage control. But any knowledge Worsfold garnered dealing with his former captain is unlikely to be shared with his rival, other than this small offering.
"I don't really want to comment on what other clubs are going through other than saying that, from our point of view or my point of view, you've got to make sure you deal with them as openly and honestly as you can," Worsfold said on Wednesday.
Given the AFL imposed sanctions still hovering above West Coast it is hard to imagine Didak in a blue and gold jumper next season. It's a thought that is yet to cross Worsfold's mind.
But given the current media frenzy over Daniel Kerr's future it is also increasingly hard to imagine the star Eagles onballer in a West Coast strip.
With The West Australian and The Australian both hinting at a Kerr move to Melbourne on Wednesday, Worsfold moved to clarify his position on the 25-year-old, who happens to be contracted for next season.
"Daniel Kerr's contracted to us and I'm hopeful he plays his whole footy career out with us," Worsfold said.
"That's what I'd like to see. So that's where I sit.
"If The West overrule me in that, or The Australian have a bigger say at our selection table, then good luck to them. But they don't."
It seems trade talk at West Coast is best left until season's end unless, according to Worsfold, Michael Braun stalls his retirement.
"It's all hypothetical. You offer the top three picks in the draft for Michael Braun, and I'd consider it."
