Sydney Swans player James Jordon loved-up with girlfriend Emily Twycross months after Pullman Hotel incident

Sydney Swans player James Jordon and his long-term girlfriend appear to be putting the explosive sexual assault claims behind them, with the couple enjoying a holiday in America almost two months after the Pullman Hotel incident.

The 25-year-old and his partner, Emily Twycross, have been photographed in Texas alongside Swans star Tom Papley and Isaac Heeney’s fiancee Steffie Waters.

The couple appeared loved-up, with Twycross resting her head on Jordon’s shoulder in one picture.

Despite the few appearances in Waters’ Instagram pictures, the couple have kept a low profile since the incident, with Jordon not posting on social media since the scandal broke.

Jordon is one of five players — including Heeney, Chad Warner, Riley Bice and Nick Blakey — who were suspended after partying into the early hours of August 17 with exotic dancers.

The hired dancers claim the AFL players sexually assaulted them, however, no charges have been laid over the incident and the players have maintained their innocence.

On Friday, Victoria Police confirmed to The Nightly the investigation remains ongoing.

The players returned to the club on September 23 once the Sydney Swans’ 2026 season came to a heartbreaking end, and they addressed the playing group for the first time since the scandal.

Nick Blakey is the only one of the ‘Pullman Five’ to have exited the club, with the 26-year-old being traded to North Melbourne.

On his exit and in his first public comments since his suspension, Blakey said he was sorry for what had occurred and admitted he has to “win back the trust of the broader community, football and otherwise”.
