Vic Marks in Sundays Observer said if England lose the third Test he shouldn't play both of the last back to back Tests. He should just play one.
I think he is right Flintoff now needs to prepare for the World Cup. There is an obvious problem with his fitness.
England never really emphasize the one day game its time they started doing so and this would be a good start.
The Ashes will just end up becoming a dead end for England and the mangement ought to send out a signal to fans we have other tournments to consider and will be resting Flintoff for maximum preperation.

If Flintoff is fit - properly fit - he should play. End of story. If he can only bowl eight overs a day, he shouldn't. His batting at the moment isn't good enough and we'd be better off with Joyce.
