The popular midfielder was a rare bright spot for Adelaide in a difficult season. Sloane missed a month after playing out the Crows’ stirring round one win over Hawthorn with a fractured jaw and thumb, but returned to play the last 18 games. The hard-nosed onballer averaged 20 disposals and five tackles, with his best performance coming against Geelong in round 21, where he amassed 36 possessions, 10 marks, seven inside50ms and earned three Brownlow votes. At only 21 years of age, Sloane has been included in the Club’s senior leadership group for 2012.

David Noble: “You want guys, who are prepared to give you all they've got and Rory does that in spades all the time. He needs to continue to work on his kick, but he's got the potential to be a high-quality midfielder. He's exceptional when he goes forward. He reads the ball well and that's his unconditional, 'play me anywhere and I'll still give you everything' approach. That's what we - and everyone else - love about him.”
