Ricky Ponting, your time is up!

Here we go again!  Ricky Ponting still refuses to stand down, so I have a question for him.  If you were still captain and on the selection panel, would you have in your team someone who has only made 43 runs in his last 8 overseas inning?  I reckon the answer would be no, so why are you still taking up a spot on our team?  It certainly is a good little earner, but I'm sure the answer lies more in your massive ego.  C'mon selectors, he won't resign with grace and humility so he has to be dropped.
