I see Webster as a 6th man who can score in a hurry.
Not necessarily with Perth just in general.

Even if he stayed in NZ I would bring him off the bench.

He came off the bench in NZ when they were fully fit anyway, so maybe he's seeking out a starter spot.

Not Brisbane please. No thank you.

He's probably just looking minutes which aren't available at the Breakers with how stacked with Guards they are if the rumors of Peyton Siva & Hugo Besson are true.

We are talking about a bloke that was once contracted to the Perth Wildcats so he must have seen something that he liked within the organisation.

Personally I'd welcome him into the Wildcats as the gunner off the bench that can close out games if needed and able insurance for Norton and Cotton as both proved to miss games last season, can handle the ball but seems to forget that he can pass too and best of all is he actually kicks some serious arse at RAC Arena so if he isn't going to break the bank then I think he's a good get on a squad that looks like it's in need for scoring punch off the bench without using an import slot.

Sucks for him that his brother cost him his job basically

Is this like the 3rd or 4th time Webster has asked to be released whilst contracted? 3 times with NZ and once with Perth was it?

"Personally I'd welcome him into the Wildcats"

Yeah nah, Hard Pass, thanks.

Not sure why anyone is surprised. For whatever reason the guy just can't stick with a team.

Does he even ask for permission or do the Breakers just release the same press release each offseason at this point?

He still has good value as a scorer, someone will buy.

Just whether the new administration can put up with the extra baggage.

"He still has good value as a scorer, someone will buy."

In order to have any true value as a scorer, he needs to actually be on court throughout the season.

Wildcats signed him to a two year deal, and I don't recall him playing a single game. So what's the point?
You're literally better off not wasting your time on him.

Let's face it, the guy is 33 in a few months. I, at least, still see him as relatively young. But he's not. He's actually over the hill and should come off the bench no matter what team he plays for. He hasn't just been out of form in the last year or two, he's actually declining.

Give him a very specific bench role. Just looked at the Jackjumpers and their lack of bench perimeter scoring. I think he'll almost certainly end up there

From what I understood the Breakers had initiated the discussion and were happy for him to look elsewhere for minutes as they're loaded with guards who fit Shamirs game plan.
He doesn’t have to leave, he has a contact but he probably won’t be getting much burn if any

Maybe he has seen the money Tasmania is offering to players and wants to see what they'll offer him?

Would welcome him at Perth.

Yeah nah, been there, done that.

He hasn't played for Perth previously.

Well, he did sign with Perth before. He just walked before the season began. Given what the Wildcats have lost, he would be a great fit backing up Cotton - pending their thoughts on how the first time transpired.

"He hasn't played for Perth previously."

Yeah, that's the problem.

As I said before, he signed a 2 year deal, and walked before playing a game.
If we signed him now, I'd lay odds he doesn't even finish out the season.
