The AFL is aware of serious allegations made against a young Sydney Swans player, Elijah Taylor, involving the woman who was involved in his breach of Covid-19 protocols.
Taylor, 19, is suspended for the rest of the 2020 season after his partner entered the Swans’ accommodation in Perth last month when she was not authorised to do so.
The same woman on Saturday made a series of allegations against Taylor via social media.
“The Sydney Swans are aware of allegations made on social media regarding first-year player Elijah Taylor,” the club said.
“The allegations are very serious and are being treated as such. The club has notified the AFL and is not in a position to comment further at this time.”
AFL officials will investigate the matter further on Sunday.
Taylor, who is originally from Western Australia, remained in Perth after his protocol breach to be with family.
The Swans have moved on to a new hub in Cairns to finish the AFL season.
