Rival AFL clubs are reportedly circling Port Adelaide ruckman Peter Ladhams, with interested suitors understood to believe the SANFL product could be gettable at season's end, per Adelaide Now.
The 23-year-old has played 24 games for the Power since making his debut in 2019, becoming a formidable option to pair with first-string ruck Scott Lycett
Ladhams has found himself out-of-favour in recent weeks following Lycett's return from suspension, while the likes of Aliir Aliir and Charlie Dixon have also shared ruck duties.

The situation now surrounding Ladhams, who has also shown promise as a forward, has now gauged the attention of rival clubs looking to bolster their ruck stocks for the 2022 season.
Despite being contracted until the end of next season, clubs may look to move for Ladhams should they believe an exit at Alberton for the former Norwood tall is an option.
It is understood that Sydney had approached Port Adelaide during last year's exchange period, only for the Power and their young ruckman to baulk at the Swans' pursuit, per News Corp.
Ladhams is likely to be one of several ruck options in the sights of rival clubs, with a number of AFL sides looking to add height to their engine room.
Geelong's hopes of luring Dockers ruckman Sean Darcy fell when the in-form tall inked a new deal with Fremantle earlier this season, while the Suns have been desperate to add to their ruck stocks following the injury to Jarrod Witts.
