What a pleasure it was to recently have AFL Hall of Famer and four-time premiership star Johnny Platten on the sports version of Legends with Bevo. We reflected on Platts’ amazing career which also included a Brownlow Medal and Magarey Medal to his name plus several other accolades. From dazzling us on the field with his fearless play to being a key figure in the Hawthorn Football Club glory days and the amazing career he had at Central Districts Football Club in the SANFL his legacy is undeniable. We also discussed why seeing his beloved Elizabeth Football Club struggling this year has been hard to watch and why they mean so much to him, his business Safety Hub and we discussed Platts challenges due to concussion-related injuries during his career.
