The "cup of coffee" that AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou wants to have with Alan Didak will be a particularly hot brew for the Collingwood star.

Demetriou said he plans to speak individually with Didak once there is a resolution to his off-field drama.

The AFL boss reiterated the league might take "further action" if more information was revealed about Didak's association on June 12 with alleged CBD gunman Christopher Wayne Hudson.

"When the dust settles on Alan Didak, I wouldn't mind having a cup of coffee with him," Demetriou told 3AW.

"He doesn't need me to give him a lecture, he understands the stupidity of the situation he got himself in.

"As I said last week, there are probably a handful of players in our code at the moment who are yet to grasp what a privilege it is to play our game....just don't waste the opportunity you're given."

The Magpies have come under strong criticism for not suspending Didak.

Earlier this week, they revealed several strict guidelines that Didak must follow regarding his private life if he wants to stay at the club.

Demetriou said the league had been happy with how the Magpies were handling the matter.

He also said the Victorian Police had briefed the AFL on their continuing investigation.

"Given all that I'm aware of now, given everything we've been briefed on by the Victorian Police and given the cooperation that Alan Didak has given to the police in his witness statement and so forth, we're satisfied that Collingwood have done all they can do to this point in time.

"We, like Collingwood, have certainly reserved our right, if anything else was to come out, we wouldn't hesitate in taking any further action.

"It's a very delicate issue and we've been in constant dialogue with Collingwood through Gary Pert, Eugene Arocca and of course Eddie McGuire.

"We understand the sensitivity around this issue and we understand the issues that relate to the Victorian police - we actually had a briefing from the Victorian police."

Melbourne player Colin Sylvia was also in the Melbourne strip club where Didak met Hudson early on the morning of June 12, but the Demons midfielder is not under investigation and his club has cleared him of wrongdoing.

Nevertheless, Demetriou said it was "stupid" that Sylvia was apparently so drunk at the strip club that he had fallen asleep.

On Thursday last week, news broke that Didak had been drunk in the strip club on June 12 and then had accepted a lift from Hudson.

Six days later, Hudson allegedly shot dead a man in the Melbourne CBD and wounded another man and a woman.

Police have also laid charges against Hudson for a shooting incident on June 12, after he had given Didak the lift.

There is strong speculation that Didak was in the car at the time Hudson fired the shots and he is a subject of police investigations over the June 12 incident, as a witness.

Earlier this week, Didak and club chief executive Gary Pert refused to answer questions about the June 12 shooting incident on legal grounds.

Collingwood coach Mick Malthouse did not attend Monday's media conference where Didak and Pert fronted the media, but the coach denied his presence was necessary.

"Do his team-mates stand next to him? I don't think there's any relevance whatsoever," Malthouse said.

"By me being there, players being there, doctors, club officials, anyone else ... you don't need a whole army of people sitting next to people.

"Support comes from various ways, I am very, very confident and comfortable that the club has handled it the best they possibly can."
