Ladhams is back. After being avoided all season with injury concerns, he returned and posted 97 in R12 — well above his 39 BE and a commanding statement from the veteran FWD. At $265.7k he is underpriced for a 67-game player capable of this output. Cash gen has been zero all season but that changes now. Buy — the injury cloud has cleared, the scoring is back, and $265.7k is too cheap to ignore.
