Richmond manager Damien Hardwick cut his weekly press conference on Friday after he was charged with alleged sexual assault among his players.
Veteran reporter Hugh Riminton alleged Tiger defenders Nick Vlastuin and Jayden Short were involved in the incidents with teammate Mabior Chol.
Two incidents were reportedly caught on camera in the locker rooms following last week’s win over Brisbane and the previous clash with the Western Bulldogs.
It showed the tigers standing in a circle and singing the club song after a victory.
