Rodney Miller and Gary Silk celebrated at annual Blue Ribbon Cup match between Saints & Hawks
Posted by: Blue Ribbon Foundation
A special day on Saturday to honour Sergeant Gary Silk and Senior Constable Rodney Miller with the 27th annual Blue Ribbon Cup played between Hawthorn and St Kilda.

New Victoria Police Commissioner Mike Bush, who recently moved from New Zeland, attended for the first time but never revealed which team he will choose to support in the AFL. Maybe a signed guernsey from St Kilda will sway his decision?
Rodney’s son Jimmy Miller and Gary’s niece Tori Silk presented the Best on Ground awards. All players also received a Blue Ribbon medal to mark the occasion.
Hawthorn came away with the win for the second year in a row, 94/74.
