Well if Collingwood plays he has 6 centuries this year in the CC, with a 100% conversion rate 50's to 100's and he has been taking wickets at a decent rate in the CC as well.
The England batting line up would be down to 8 with specialists and a 4 man attack (not including Colly & Vaughan as v.good part timers) will improve the fielding as well.
If the Aussies bring in a 5th bowler they would be down to 6 specialist batsmen (with Gilchrist looking very vulnerable as the no 6 at the moment as well, and Warne at 7!)

What a turn around that would be!
