Richmond have hit a fresh low with the AFL club launching an investigation into player behaviour at a team hotel in Sydney on Saturday night.

The Tigers have made an awful start to the season, losing their opening three matches of the season by more than 50 points to firm as favourites for the wooden spoon.

The men from Punt Road continued their rotten run in Saturday night's 55-point loss to the Swans at the SCG.

"The club is in the process of conducting a thorough investigation and once all the facts are established a further update will be provided," the Tigers said in a statement released late on Sunday night.

"The club expects to be in a position to provide the media with more detailed information by tomorrow afternoon."
