Dream Team stars Lance "Buddy" Franklin and Cameron Mooney are both preparing to play on club team-mates when they take on Victoria at the MCG in Saturday night's AFL Hall of Fame tribute game.
Franklin and Mooney, along with Fremantle captain Matthew Pavlich and Richmond veteran Matthew Richardson, are part of a powerful attack for the combined team which Dream Team coach Mark Williams has labelled the best in the game's history.
But Franklin, who is leading the race for the Coleman Medal this year with 36 goals in seven games, and Mooney - the Cats' leading goalkicker last year and a key cog in the club's first premiership win in 44 years - both face the prospect of lining up on familiar faces on Saturday night.
While Geelong's Matthew Scarlett is likely to be assigned the huge job of marking Franklin, his club team-mate Trent Croad could easily get the job and Mooney is a huge chance to be opposed by Geelong team-mate Darren "Dasher" Milburn.
But the pair has contrasting thoughts when asked how they would like to play directly against one of their club team-mates.
While Franklin would prefer not to match-up on Croad, the fiery Mooney can hardly wait to lock horns with the tough Milburn.
"He is one match-up I wouldn't like to play on," Franklin said of Croad.
"He has a hard, strong body, is physically strong in the air and on the ground and he is fast too."
"So I wouldn't mind if he (Croad) got Richo instead to be honest."
But Mooney would love to play on Milburn, although he conceded he was unlikely to line-up on Scarlett - arguably the number one defender in the AFL.
"If you look at these boys (his fellow Dream Team forwards) I think I am probably last in line so I don't think I will get 'Scarlo' and thank Christ for that," Mooney said.
"But there is every chance I might get 'Dasher' and I have been looking for an excuse to whack 'Dasher'."
Mooney said there is no way he will temper his renowned aggressive approach just because of the fact he was lining up against some club team-mates.
"I grew up in New South Wales and I watched a lot of state of origin in the rugby league and I used to love it," he said.
"Up there they say it's mate against mate but who cares really."
"I grew up hating Victoria so this has been one of the biggest weeks of my life as far as football goes, I am very excited."
Mooney said he can't wait to play alongside Richardson, Pavlich and Franklin - who has declared himself a certain starter after having been in doubt with a shoulder injury.
"I have had two of the best days of my career just getting to know all these blokes, I have thoroughly enjoyed it and I desperately want to win on Saturday night."
