North Melbourne player Tarryn Thomas will "undertake training and education to deal with his behavioural issues" following a string of serious accusations levelled against him by multiple women.

On Tuesday reports surfaced that a number of women have stepped forward with allegations of intimidating behaviour, threats, abusive language, confronting text messages, and a verbal and physical altercation taking place at a Melbourne nightclub.

The matters were directed to the AFL.

The claims come after the club confirmed last month Thomas was charged with threatening to distribute an intimate image following a three-month investigation by police, understood to involve his former partner.

The 22-year-old was also caught driving without a licence over the Christmas period.

One woman has reportedly been offered counselling by the league, who initially classed the allegations as family violence.

A number of the alleged victims have expressed their concerns with the AFL's handling of the situation with one telling the Herald Sun: "It's discouraging to see that the AFL and North Melbourne are aware how many women have (made allegations against Thomas), yet it is still being overlooked."

On Wednesday North Melbourne president Dr Sonja Hood released a statement to club members and fans.

Dr Hood said the club "take any allegation of threats of violence against women extremely seriously."

"Respect of all people is fundamental to our club values," she said.

Dr Hood said North was aware of formal allegations made against Thomas last year and investigated by the AFL's Integrity Unit and that he and the club co-operated fully over the period.

"The advice provided by the AFL following these incidents was that Tarryn should undertake training and education to deal with his behavioural issues," she said.

"The club has since built a significant and multi-layered program which includes respectful relationships education, working with psychologists, mentoring, peer support and community outreach for Tarryn to complete so he can meet North Melbourne's values and community expectations.

"He has started work on this program and we'll continue to support Tarryn as he completes this work. Should any further investigation arise from new information passed on to the AFL or the police, the club and Tarryn will co-operate fully, as we did in the wake of those initial allegations."

Dr Hood said the club will not make any further comment on Thomas' matter currently before the courts and will await the outcome of those proceedings before the next course of action is confirmed.

A plea was made to fans troubled by taking on the news.

"Finally, I know that this issue is challenging and confronting, and the club acknowledges the impact people will be feeling across the community by reading the media today," Dr Hood said.

"We are committed to supporting our people through this time and I want to reiterate that our whole club understands the significance of this matter."

Thomas took time away from the club midway through last season to deal with a family bereavement.

He is expected to continue training in preparation for the 2023 season as he undergoes behavioural training.
