Triple premiership warrior Vlastuin again marshalled Richmond’s defence in 2025 with a steely resolve, courage and class.

The veteran finished runner-up in the Jack Dyer Medal for the second year in a row to mark his fifth top-four result, made his second All-Australian squad and was unlucky not to make the team. His season ended in Round 23 due to a broken ankle.

The lion-hearted defender enters the final year of his deal as Richmond’s most experienced player with more than 250 games to his name.
