The 2015 All-Australian team represents the best performed Australian Football League (AFL) players during the 2015 season. It was announced on 22 September 2015, as a complete Australian rules football team of 22 players. The team is honorary and does not actually play any games.

The selection panel for the 2015 All-Australian team consisted of chairman Gillon McLachlan, Kevin Bartlett, Luke Darcy, Mark Evans, Danny Frawley, Glen Jakovich, Cameron Ling, Matthew Richardson and Warren Tredrea.[1]

Team

Hawthorn, Richmond, West Coast and the Western Bulldogs had the most selections, with three each. Western Bulldogs captain, Robert Murphy, was announced as the All-Australian captain, with West Coast forward, Josh Kennedy, announced as the vice-captain.[2] The team saw eleven players selected in an All-Australian side for the first time in their career.[3]
