aussies had a top slips cordon a few years back with Tubby, Junior and Warney in there.

All 3 gone now, and it does look a bit shaky outside of Ponting.

Hayden is a great fielder but i'm not convinced with him in slips yet.

Love has also been a great fielder in Pura Cup level, and started great in test cricket there but dropped a sitter against the Windies, and is still untested at this level.
Remember when Love took 4 catches on test debut in the slips, they were talking him up then, but has since put a few down.
hayden is a great slips fielder too the spinners, he has excellent reflexes. Damien Martyn is quite good too.
Michael Clarke has a good set of hands and will probably be used there in the future in the one dayers id say. With Ponting, Hogg and Symonds all around the wicket you can sacrifice Clarke to the slips.
