How are we going to make the coin we need?

Have some underperformers but no major probs but concern is if we don't pick up the likes of fasolo, crouch & Lloyd and bank some $ now.... How will we get the money we need for the upgrades at bye time? I'm not sure the rookies with solid JS will be around when we need them. Other rooks are all playing and have more $ to make. Would you cull any early to get the bank up or perhaps downgrade the underperformers like T Mitchell and murphy?
Team is:
Mitchell, Simpson, mcveigh, suckling, McDonald, Langdon (Langford, Georgiou)
Ablett, beams, libba, murphy, Tyson, Dunstan, ellis (Aish, Cunningham)
Sandi, hickey (currie, king )
Zorko, dusty, roughead, wingard, m wright, t Mitchell (Higgins, impey)
70k in bank
PLEASE advise. Need a plan to keep the wins rolling but make some dosh for upgrades

making 150k is not worth 2 trades trading Titch to Fasolo just to upgrade Fasolo in future is crazy

edit -  that desired guy deleted his post  ::)

But if we don't trade now, where's the money coming from. Can't see rookies on the horizon with the JS and scoring potential of fasolo and crouch. Let me know if you can see them. Problem may be that when we think the time is right, the best we can find be second rate and unlikely to play many games

They always pop up out of nowhere. Morabito, Robertson, Blease?, Joel Tippet, Bock, Salem, Merret. Just to name a few. Don't stress they always come along.

Plus you can always trade in a non-playing rookie like Jayden Hunt (m/f) to give you flexibility and get cash generation later on. If no rookies come along than the fallen premiums are required to fill your team.

When teams like Carlton ect realise they can't make finals they will play more rookies to get games into them, and will play them no matter how well they go.

if you have a strong fwdline i dont think titch to fasolo is a bad move at all, mitchell been very underwhelming and if he doesnt pick it up you could end up losing alot of cash

Titch to fasolo is what I'm contemplating. But maybe wait a week and go to Lloyd instead for more $? It's not like either are going to get a game over Higgins in my team.
