Who is John Platten?
John Patrick "The Rat" Platten is a former Australian rules footballer.
Platten carved an illustrious career in the game: first in his native South Australia, winning a Magarey Medal, then with the all conquering Hawthorn Hawks team of the late 1980s and early 1990s; winning four Premiership flags as well as a Brownlow Medal.
With his diminutive frame and unruly tangle of curls he cut a distinctive figure on the field, one who played with tremendous tenacity with the ability to accumulate possessions week after week.
