Richmond key defender Libby Graham has finished third in the 2025 Best and Fairest count.

It follows her standout season in the yellow and black, which saw Graham take home this year's Best Defender Award earlier on Tuesday night.

She averaged 4.8 interceptions per game, the third highest in the team, and led the back six across all 12 matches, averaging a career-best nine disposals and 139 metres gained.

Graham stood tall in the 11-point win over Adelaide, limiting the impact of Crow forwards, while recording 12 disposals, four marks, eight intercepts and 122 meters gained.

The 28-year-old featured in all 12 of Richmond’s matches this season, where she had a career-best season, averaging nine disposals with 139 meters gained.

The third-place finish for Graham sees yet another improvement in her game, after finishing 11th in last year's count.

Graham was also nominated for the AFL Players' Association MVP this season.
