Default Shane Warne to retire?

Warnie appears set to retire after the Sydney New Years Test: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2006/...290604407.html

I really thought that he may play on for another year and possibly even play in the next Ashes series in England. But it looks like I am wrong. I'm just grateful for being around to watch one of the greatest if not the best spin bowler in history. Sure he is a flawed and controversial character off the field, but in the application of his art as a leg spin bowler he is a genius without equal.
