The Wheel is Forever
Courtney Walsh. Not as explosive as the others - but the man did it for 17 years, and he looked like he could go for another 17. A real workhorse, needs to get in IMO.

132 matches (a lot for fast bowler) over 17 years @ 24.44, and 519 wickets. He may not be top 5, but should have been in top 20.
 

The Sean

Cricketer Of The Year
Spofforth's no chance, so I'll join the crowd and go with Walsh for sheer durability and quality over such a long period of time.
