Troubled Western Bulldogs star Jamarra Ugle-Hagan won't play AFL again, according to AFL great Matthew Lloyd.
The 23-year-old hasn't played an AFL game in 2025 due to a variety of personal issues, with the key forward also only sporadically attending training.
Ugle-Hagan has been linked with a move away from the Bulldogs - with Sydney suggested as a team to offer the former no.1 draft pick a fresh start.
However, Lloyd believes that Ugle-Hagan doesn't have the ability to rebuild the trust he has lost at the Bulldogs - or at any other AFL club.

"He needed to come back, when he's first come back, and not miss a beat," Lloyd said on Footy Classified.
"He would be playing now if he didn't miss a beat - at least at VFL level or with a slim chance [of playing AFL in 2025].
"I would use the word trust - right across the board at that club there is no trust [in Ugle-Hagan].
"When you don't have trust, you have nothing.
"When you don't show up and you miss a session... miss one well then you start to go okay I'm not sure about this bloke.
"But you miss a second (session), the trust is gone.
"It's a long way back and that's unfortunately why I personally can't see him ever playing another game of AFL - with anyone.
"That's how big the trust word is for me even be letting him through the doors firstly and then getting a game is another story.
"He needs to change - forget about the environment."
