Four AFL players will not face criminal charges after police investigated an alleged sexual assault at Melbourne's Pullman Hotel in August.
The investigation found insufficient evidence to support prosecution, and the players - Isaac Heeney, James Jordon, Chad Warner and Nick Blakey - had been suspended for the rest of the season. Riley Bice, who was also suspended, had already been cleared by police.
Three women, identified as adult entertainers, have alleged inappropriate touching and are pursuing civil litigation, with the claim based on a balance of probabilities. Because of the ongoing civil matter, Victoria Police have no further comment.
The Sydney Swans' disciplinary actions were separate from the police investigation, and the club announced a review of its AFL program to reinforce standards. The AFL confirmed it will monitor the situation for any new evidence.
