Western Bulldogs forward Jamarra Ugle-Hagan is taking a leave of absence from the Club as he deals with personal issues.
The decision has been mutually reached by Jamarra and his family, his management, the Club and the AFL.
A management plan has been developed with Jamarra.
"Jamarra's health and wellbeing remains the absolute priority and he will be given whatever time he needs,” Sam Power, Executive Manager - Men’s Football, said.
"We will continue to support Jamarra throughout this period.”
The Club and the family have asked that Jamarra’s privacy and that of his family be respected at this time.
