I'm not sure if BOTH of them were under Gajeel, but Sting was confirmed to be. Rogue only apparently admired Natsu, but not much has been said about him. They look like real dragon slayers to me, because they partnered up with Exceeds (especially since Hiro-sensei seemed to make the Exceeds as real dragon slayers' trademark, because Laxus and Cobra didn't have them...).
