I also would prefer a scrip bid, to be able to remain a part owner of the company. I also hold IGO and getting more IGO scrip for my WSA holding would be much preferable to copping capital gains tax on a cash transaction.

With IGO now in the hot seat to pick up Glencore's CSA copper mine, I would have thought an all scrip takeover of WSA would have freed up cash and lending ability for the CSA mine. Glencore will want cash. Probably too late for any change now.
