Pretty sure that we won't have to worry about it. Be very surprised if this isn't already sorted and George becomes a blue on Monday.

Umm am i missing something
There is nothing special about Hewitt
His averages are worse than Kennedys

Swans committed to let him go as a free agent. I would argue you can't treat mid tier players like that, haggling over compensation. They will get his value based on the contract offer which is what he is worth.

Go check his stats out on the afl page he you think otherwise
He is consistent, cheap (in terms of salary and trade capital), runs both ways, tackles and knows how to defend.

Hewett has had to play off the half back at times and not as a full time mid. But when in there he plays a very defensive role which we clearly lack. In my opinion the perfect player to complement our more attacking mids

Reason why I asked is there doesn’t seem to be any animosity, lack of opportunities or Ill will towards the Swans, just a financial and career decision due to the Swans cap issues

I honestly think lower averages are more due to lack of opportunity than lack of ability. Sydney’s midfield runs pretty deep, and the balance of veterans and kids would be hard to strike. Kennedy, Parker and Florent are mainstays, Heeney and Papley rotating through, Campbell, Warner, Gulden and Stephens needing some CB time. Compare that to our very shallow midfield pool and it’s easy to see why Hewett would see more opportunities with us.

Would only take trade radio as a very very rough guide towards the truth.
I would imagine that with Cerra and Hewitt coming in we will be close to our cap this year. Wouldn't be surprised if part of the reason that sps is leaving is to clear enough cap space to make it work.
Wouldn't worry too much though as Mitch McGovern contract runs out this year and there are quite a few midfielders like Dow and Setterfield etc who are facing make or break years. Should be enough in 2023 to get Sam Walsh signed up.
Might mean that this is our last year to bring in big money free agents/trades for a bit and go back to the draft for next year.

Yep, averages are all that matter. Tom Mitchell is the best player in the comp and Jimmy Plunkett was one of our best ever midfielders.
