SYDNEY vice-captain Isaac Heeney says he's looking forward to addressing his teammates after the club's five suspended players made their return to the Swans' headquarters.

Heeney, Chad Warner, Nick Blakey, James Jordon and Riley Bice on Wednesday appeared at Swans HQ for the first time since being banned for breaching club standards in August.

Warner and Bice first arrived together at the club's base at Moore Park, followed by vice-captain Heeney, Blakey and Jordon in the same car.

Only Heeney and Warner spoke to media, and the players were brief in their comments.

“I’m looking forward to addressing the playing group,” Heeney said.

Asked if Heeney had a message to fans, the Swans vice-captain did not answer.

Warner, flanked by a silent Bice, said he was "just here for my exit interview".

Asked if he was going to say sorry or anything at all, Warner said: "I don’t know.”

The five have not spoken in public since a club statement was issued following their round 23 match against Essendon in August.

Their club-imposed suspensions are separate from a police investigation into sexual assault allegations, with Victoria Police flagging an update is not expected until late October.

No charges have been laid, and there is no suggestion of any wrongdoing on the part of the five suspended players.

Swans chief executive Matthew Pavlich spoke to reporters earlier on Wednesday and said the club would hear the group out.

“I want them to be themselves,” Pavlich said of what he wanted to hear from the players.

“I want them to come in and do what we'd normally do at the end of a season, which is, yeah, player exit meetings.

"If they've got something to say to their player group, if they've got something to say to the club, then we'll hear them out then."
