Fresh screenshots have emerged of a leaked video content allegedly involving Collingwood star Jack Crisp.

The screenshots depict previously reported Snapchat images that feature what appears to be Crisp referring to “little sl**s” and “lines” in the captions.

“Come and drink and have some lines. Just have a bit of a party,” one caption reads.

“You young girls are my little sl**s. I’ll tell you what to do,” reads another.

The video shows a man scrolling through several Snapchat screenshots, until a photo of a man holding his genitalia appears.

It is unclear whether the photographed man is Crisp.

News Corp’s Jon Ralph reported Crisp will play in tonight’s blockbuster clash against Brisbane despite the leaking of the images.

It is understood Crisp and his family have been aware of the images for several years.

Under the AFL’s illicit drugs policy, a player given a first strike receives a two-week ban and a $5000 fine, as seen with Crisp’s Collingwood teammate Jack Ginnivan earlier this year.

A second strike incurs a four-match suspension and publication of the player’s name, and a third results in a 12-match suspension, last seen with Hawthorn’s Travis Tuck in 2010 after being found unconscious in his car by police after a suspected drug overdose.

Collingwood responded to the issue in a statement on Wednesday night, saying they “are aware of a video circulating online this evening involving AFL player Jack Crisp.”

“The Club has been in contact with the AFL and will work through the situation before providing a further update,” the club said.

The AFL in a statement released on Thursday morning said that the AFL Integrity Unit would “speak with Crisp in relation to the content upon his return from Brisbane”.

Former Collingwood president Eddie McGuire reacted to the video on Footy Classified.

“We’re not quite sure but we’re lead to believe it’s historical, it’s from a number of years back,” McGuire said.

“The Collingwood Football Club will do its due diligence with the AFL to see whether it was historical, whether it was private and confidential and whether Jack Crisp is the victim here.”

Co-host Damian Barrett said the investigation would look at whether the video was consensually sent and received.

“And has somebody set him up now,” McGuire interjected.

Crisp has played 204 AFL games — 185 for Collingwood and 18 for the Brisbane Lions.

The 29-year-old has played 191 consecutive matches, the longest streak of any current player, making the two-time Magpies best and fairest the most durable player in the AFL.

It’s not Crisp’s first brush with controversy. In 2015, he was found guilty of placing bets totalling $129 on AFL outcomes while playing for the Lions in 2014.

This latest incident comes after Collingwood’s Jack Ginnivan was banned for the opening to matches of the season after he admitted to using an illicit substance.

Ginnivan was found guilty of conduct unbecoming after the Pies reported that there was vision of Ginnivan with an illicit substance while in Torquay in January.
