I dunno they still have Ponting,Hussey,Clarke,Clark,MacGill and Lee which is a fairly strong spine to work with.They desperately need a couple of the young pace bowlers to step up though.

McGill's kinda long in the tooth himself, right? I guess Lee still has a good 3 or 4 years in him...

McGill might be Warne's immediate replacement, but over the long run, people like Cameroon White or Dan Cullen (hope I've got the spelling right) might be the guys for Australia. I've seen a bit of both, and they're talented enough, so its going to be interesting to see how the progress in test cricket whenever that happens.

Chin out! Chest out! Buttocks in!...At least, that's something me grammy used to say...(or perhaps it was: "Stop being a whoosh"...)

Dan Cullen might be it...I have seen more of him than of White though. But, because of that I am probably prejudiced...

Cameron it is. Cameroon is a country on this continent.. And they have one heck of a national football team!

Not only is Warnie the greatest spinner of all time, he's also a fantastic slip fielder, a more than useful tailender & the greatest crcketing brain of contemporary cricket. Add to that his colourful nature, & you probably get the greatest character of cricket ever. Warne is irreplacable.
