Utterly hopeless (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abject

'utterly hopeless' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for abject that I've seen before include "'Grovelling, apology say (6)'" , "Lacking all pride, like a humble apology" , "feeble" , "Down-hearted" , "Extreme, poverty say" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
