I entirely trust the list management at WCE. If anyone leaves I'm sure we will get decent value from them and if we do trade a player, I'm sure that we wont lose entirely.

They might seem like strange decisions right now, but I'm sure the reasonings behind them would fit.
Not sure about this, we have a recent habit of letting players go for whatever we are able to get.

I hope I am just freaking out or being pessimistic, but I'm not confident, at all. Also interesting that we hardly hear about players being linked with our club.
I just think that the club with our resources, ability and desire to get the best possible people in all positions greatly minimises potential screw ups. Add to that the fact we are historically successful and finished fourth.

As for our recent past. McKinley, Spanger and Staker trades have been around right.
In retrospect I agree. Spangher we lost for nothing, Staker has played patches of very good footy for Brisbane, along with Seaby and pick 39 worth far more than the spare change we may get for Stevens.

All of those players where borderline to being delisted. To think we somehow got rid of them for less than they where actually worth is far fetched.

You also need to account for their ability playing in our team as well.

Staker is probably the only player out of Byron's list who will be on their respective teams list in 2 years and he reached the end of the road with us. If he got a game this year it would have been over Schofield.

In the year we lost Staker, Seaby and Pick 39, we gained Pick #22 (Weedon) not fantastic but far from poor.

No. Seaby, Staker and Spanger have played some good footy since leaving. What it shows is that we either mismanaged them as players or got less than their worth. No if's, no but's.

It is amusing how many rumours have been on this thread that are self-perpetuating but never reach any level of actualisation.

Seaby was competing with Naitanui and was already miles behind Cox, the club even preferred Lynch rucking to Seaby at the time. Stake was talented but inconsistent in his time here and he relished being in a side with less expectations on him and Spangher has been decent without being sensational so the jury is still out there. That being said on Spanger, he went to Sydney the team renown for re-creating players.

We got what they were worth at the time.

Seaby has played 7 games since he was traded. Stake has a fantastic year last year but has been injured all of this year and will miss the entire 2012. Spangher was also delisted, played some decent footy to get 6 games but there was no room for him at our club.
