The no-show came the morning after three more women spoke publicly about alleged inappropriate sexual conduct by the former GWS Giant.

"The club's Integrity Committee met this afternoon and will continue to ascertain all relevant information,"Hawthorn's statement read.

"The club will provide a further update at the completion of the investigation and asks that the privacy of all parties involved be respected at this time."

Patton is under investigation by the Hawks'integrity committee after it emerged on Saturday that a woman had made claims about his behaviour towards her on social media.

Following that revelation,Elle Conan told Channel Nine that she too had allegedly received inappropriate messages from Patton.

"Basically from the get-go,he just talked to me in such a sexual nature that I never reciprocated,"Conan said.

"He would send me photos of him in bed,like[with his body] exposed. I was making it really clear that I didn't want that from him."

Another woman,Jacqueline Kearton,told Channel Seven she allegedly received unwanted and inappropriate pictures and video messages from Patton.

"He just needs to be made an example of … unfortunately,it is not something that is uncommon but it makes you feel uncomfortable."

A third woman,who remained anonymous,made similar allegations to News Corp.

Patton has deleted his social media accounts.

The AFL has been contacted for comment,while Patton's manager said media requests about the player's predicament would be handled by the club.

Hawthorn had said on Saturday they were aware of the initial allegation towards Patton.

"The allegations are of behaviour that does not reflect the values and standards of Hawthorn Football Club,"that statement read.

"As soon as the club became aware of the allegations,it addressed the matter with Patton directly and clearly communicated that any behaviour of this nature would not be tolerated.

"Hawthorn advocates for equality and respect for everyone and demands this same behaviour from all involved with the club."
