WITH the Cats hosting the Crows in an epic grudge match on Saturday night, we take a look at two good mates, one who has stuck with Adelaide and another who defected to Geelong - Rory Sloane and Patrick Dangerfield.

Both have had spectacular seasons, with Dangerfield the favourite for this year's Brownlow Medal, while Sloane has picked up the slack in Adelaide's midfield and is well on track to add to his 2013 best and fairest.

Who comes out on top? Watch the tape, make the call.
