HAWTHORN defender Rick Ladson's season is over after undergoing surgery on his right knee on Thursday.
Ladson, who underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee during the pre-season, played his first game since the Hawks' grand final win over Geelong against West Coast last month but has been troubled since with a problem in his right knee.
Hawks coach Alastair Clarkson said the club was hopeful the premiership backman would be right for pre-season training.
"He's been a really durable player for us over the previous three or four seasons and this year, for whatever reason, it's just blown up for him. Hopefully by having this surgery he'll be able to have a full pre-season and get himself right for 2010," Clarkson said.
