Carlton has selected Marc Murphy, Sam Docherty and Patrick Cripps as its three nominees for the 2015 AFL Players' MVP (Most Valuable Player) award.

Every player on the Carlton list was required to select his three most valuable teammates, with the top-three vote getters listed as options in the second stage of voting.

In stage two of voting, every AFL player will vote via a 3-2-1 system for the MVP of the season. Players are forbidden from voting for teammates during this stage.

The winner of the 2015 AFLPA MVP will be announced live on Fox Footy on Tuesday September 15 at 8:30pm.

Carlton's MVP nominees:

MARC MURPHY
Murphy has continued his stellar career in 2015, relishing the captaincy and putting up his hand for a second All-Australian berth.

The 28 year-old’s disposal count was elite, ranking 19th in the AFL and first at Carlton, including a season-high 37 touches against the Hawks in Round 17 in what’s been his best season since winning the club’s best and fairest and the AFL Coaches’ Association Champion Player of the Year Award in 2011.

SAM DOCHERTY
Docherty has been a revelation off half-back for the Blues in 2015, proving to be one of the bargain recruits of recent years. Averaging over 20 disposals a game and leading the Blues for rebounds, the ex-Lion showed his class in Round 16 against Fremantle, registering 27 disposals and a goal.

PATRICK CRIPPS
The 20 year-old Blue, known by recruiters as “The Extractor” has been prolific in Carlton’s midfield in 2015, averaging 22 disposals and more than five tackles per game. The 194cm star picked up an astonishing 23 contested possessions against St Kilda in Round 4 and looms as one of the favourites to take out this year’s Rising Star award.
