Jamarra Ugle-Hagan’s difficult 12 months has taken another turn, with the Bulldogs forward claiming his car has been stolen.

The 23-year-old posted on his Instagram stories appearing to allege his Toyota HiLux was taken from Port Melbourne.

The Herald Sun reported the car went missing at around 3pm on Monday.

“If you see this fella. (sic) Tell him drop my car back off at my house. Bay Street tax is crazy,” Ugle-Hagan posted.

The photo showed a man in a ‘Monash’ hoddie with a black cap, black sunglasses and hoodie outside a Guzman y Gomez.

Foxsports.com.au does not suggest the allegation is true, only that Ugle-Hagan has made it.

The Bulldog returned to training last week after taking personal leave from football following a difficult period which began late last season.

Speaking on a podcast recently he opened up on the depth of his mental health battles and hitting rock bottom after stepping away from AFL.

“All the noises actually sent me to a rehab facility for my mental health,” Ugle-Hagan told former AFL players Mitch Robinson and Rhys Mathieson on their podcast Rip Through It.

“It got to a point where I had to give my car to a mate so I couldn’t drive, I just didn’t trust myself driving.

“There were times when I would think about – to be honest with you – just not even worth even living.

“I went through a struggle where I didn’t want to leave the house. I hit rock bottom and found basement.

“Definitely (there were suicidal thoughts). Suicidal thoughts would come pretty frequently.”

Ugle-Hagan added that he “felt like I was on my own the whole time”.

“When you are down you want to keep finding an upper. My upper was probably staying and hanging out with my mates and getting on the piss and training with them as well,” he continued.

“But it just had no end goal, I didn’t have a game. I didn’t have anything.

“My mental health wasn’t in the right space, so I was struggling, and I found it really tough to even enjoy football.

“I lost the fun in it. I didn’t want to play, it wasn’t even a priority because all I wanted to do was find something.

“But I didn’t know what that was until I have had this break.”
