THE nominees for the 2020 AFL Players’ Association's AFLW Most Valuable Player Awards have been revealed.

Carlton fans will see a trio of Blues competing for the top award with Maddy Prespakis, Chloe Dalton and Kerryn Harrington all in contention. 

The trio were at their very best throughout the 2020 season, leading the competition in their respective positions.

It will be an opportunity to snare the award from Adelaide star midfielder Ern Phillips, who missed the first half of the season through a serious knee injury.

However, Prespakis, Dalton and Harrington are not the only Blues up for awards.

Co-captain Katie Loynes’ toughness and willingness to put her body on the line endlessly has seen her nominated for the ‘Most Courageous’ award, while 2020 draftee Grace Egan will be hoping to take home the ‘Best First Year Player’.

Voting for the AFLW MVP, Most Courageous, Best First-Year Player and Best Captain awards is a two-stage process, with players nominating their teammates in stage one before selecting from a competition-wide field in stage two.

Players cannot vote for a player from their own club during stage two of the voting process.

The AFL Players' Association will recognise the achievements of the award winners with a special rollout of digital content on our website and social media channels on Monday 20 April. 

Carlton nominees:

MVP: Madison Prespakis, Chloe Dalton, Kerryn Harrington

Best First Year Player: Grace Egan

Most Courageous: Katie Loynes

Best Captain: Kerryn Harrington / Katie Loynes
