No, way more mobile.

Redden could take a mark but couldn't lead and turn like Ladhams does.
Ben Brown from North Melbourne is probably the most athletic 200cm player at the moment. Ladhams forward play and athleticsm is similar.
Ladhams much more nimble I would've thought ??
Ladhams is Ladhams period. Tippett is a 'learned' footballer, Ladhams is a natural whose agility is superior to Lade
even before Brendan broke his legs. A future CHF for us?....pencil in Billy Frampton as a definite maybe.
Billy will never shirk a contest, is deceptively quick with a solid kicking action and powerful leg. STRONG pair of hands too.
We know that Billy can be sucked into distractions but when he grows a longer fuse he'll let only his footy do the talking.
His aggression and speed means that he creates room/opportunity around a contest. He's a very direct player so watch out
any defender who gets between him and the ball.

The prospect of a Howard-Frampton-Marshall forward line with Ladhams rucking and resting forward in 4-5 years is pants tightening stuff... assuming they all come on as expected (hoped).

I've been a fan of Billy the Kid for a while now, great to see him continuing to progress and still wanting to sort it out in the car park .
And I'm liking the sound of Ladhams already. He showed a great mind-set by his response to missing out on a spot at the Draft Combine. He wants to prove himself.
Can't wait to see Howard back into the mix too. More flexible height and aggression.

'Ken's aversion to two rucks'
Carn. Ken persisted with two rucks in 2015 for about 4 months after it was clear that it wasn't working.

I'm not talking about the past but the present. Only one ruck has been selected to be used with occasional back ups, I can only see Ladhams getting some games in 2018 at the earliest when he has to fill in for an injured player.

Glad to hear Dimi played well. I still have hope!
Maybe that was what the PAFC twitter custodian started the night with - three tweets for the whole match and one of those was just a picture of the A grade boys watching the game!

Can some one enlighten me as to who Ella Watson is at PAFC? Saw her report on last nights game and she has no idea whatsoever. Can't get over her best players. Completely out of whack with what actually happened. If Toump and Monfries weren't in her bests?

What I noticed last night in the dim dark light was us going backwards to go forwards.
No jeers from a 'surprised'? crowd either and I tell ya what it worked a treat too. More than once it opened up more direct,
think corridor, options while denying them the ball. Sturt, even minus Kirkwood and others? would have towelled
up any other sanfl team last night. Their problem was they didn't play any other team, they played us.
As well drilled as they are we didn't give them time to settle with the ball.
Strongest Maggies team i've seen for ages and the best bit of all, weez a gunna get better.
Suck on that ya freeloading campaigners.

I've only seen a couple of games of his but is it fair to say he covers the ground a lot better than Redden?
IIRC Jarman Impey didn't play the 2nd 1/2 yet named in our best
.Wasn't her rundown on the Nth Adelaide game eyebrow raising too?

Not listed on the PAFC website as working for Ports so probably work experience angling for a job with News Limited.
