Sydney Swans forward Isaac Heeney says he will address his teammates after his season was ended by a club suspension.

Heeney and his fellow banned teammates arrived at Swans HQ for their exit meetings on Wednesday evening after Sydney’s 2026 season came to an end last week.

“I’m looking forward to addressing the playing group,” Heeney told a waiting pack of reporters as he arrived.

It is Heeney’s first public comment since he and four teammates — Chad Warner, Nick Blakey, James Jordon and Riley Bice — were suspended by the club for a breach of standards last month.

Warner and Bice arrived first before Heeney, Jordon and Blakey arrived as a group shortly afterwards.

Warner was questioned by reporters on whether he would apologise to his teammates and said: “I don’t know, we’ll wait and see.”

The banned players were met at the door by Swans executive general manager of football, Leon Cameron. Blakey, Jordon and Bice did not speak. 

An undermanned Swans side shocked grand finalists Brisbane in a qualifying final before being beaten by Fremantle in last week’s preliminary final.
