Yep the time has indeed come for someone to make the decision to retire Flintoff from one format of the game (preferably the one day stuff) in a bid to prolong his international career. I can't really see Flintoff being objective enough to make the decision himself and it needs one of Moores or Graveney to step up and grow a pair. The extra time off as well as aiding his fitness battle would allow him to try and address the decline with the bat for Lancashire by actually giving hm some time at the crease to find some form prior to international games rather than hope he miraculously finds it during the game.
