Where are all the young Aussie fast bowlers? Is Hazelwood any good?
Smith has just stepped up as captain only recently and the vice captain is Warner- who has needed much discipline and media spin to keep quiet the fact that he's actually quite dim. (Reminds me of Warne,great player but a bit of a putz otherwise)

Like for like. He can crank it up like Starc.He's coming back from injury... Geez those fast bowlers seem so frail at times.
Tait has trouble bowling for 4 overs and is largely done except for a 20/20 here and there.
Mitch Johnson has given it up unfortunately despite getting some wicked figures in some recent 20/20's (that he's still playing)

Australia still has a few quicks in the shed
James Pattinson isn't too far off a recall to Test cricket.
Jason Behrendorff is another strong contender (Tall, slippery left armer)
Jackson Bird is a great first change guy, swings it a bit, keeps it tidy.
Chadd Sayers and Joe Mennie from SA have also been in the mix. Both are above fast medium pace.
In 20/20 and ODIs we have a paddock full.
Billy Stanlake was given a go this season. Not convinced but lots of potential.
Kane Richardson has played a few ODIs and isn't bad
Andrew Tye is a death overs specialist (especially in 20/20)

As long as Ireland give England a spanking and also the All Blacks give them one too and you give them a spanking in the Ashes, all is good.
If you fancy Oirland on Saturday, most bookies have them at 2-1. Go fill yerr boots
I am taking England at -4 at evens
We will see
PS...where do the ABs keep getting referenced? Are you confusing the British lions tour there this summer (which might, after last Saturday, include maybe 0, 1 or 2 Scottish players in entire squad) with an England NZ tour?
