Apologies if this was posted at the time it was first published (the article dates back to June this year) but I have only just seen it and don't recall any discussion on here at the time. Sumner's story gives an interesting insight into the challenges faced by youngsters drafted to the AFL when they may not be quite ready for it.

Would like to see him get another chance somewhere. He demonstrated some raw footy ability during his brief stay at the Swans, and it sound like his experiences have helped sharpen his focus on what he wants and what is involved in being an AFL player.
