Aw man, and now i thought this would be a nice cozy topic for casual discussion loosely related to tanking in general. I wish there were topics like that...

Are you saying the sticky's are bad or that Zakkhar's redirection to the sticky's was wrongfully?
Either way, you are kind of mistaken.

I am kind of new to tanking, but what help me out was having these macros.
#showtooltip Thunder Clap
/cast Thunder Clap
/cast Cleave
It will que up cleave right after TC, and even when TC on cool down, you can still use this to Cleave.
#showtooltip Revenge
/cast Revenge
/cast Heroic Strike
This will que HS right after Revenge, really helpful especially if you have the revenge glyph
#showtooltip
/castsequence reset=15 Charge, Intercept, Charge; Intervene;
This is the Warbringer Macro, It will use charge or intercept(whatever is off cool down first), and if you target a friendly it will intervene.
As for my rotation? For multiple mobs: Charge- Shield Slam-TC/Cleave macro-Demo-Revenge-Shockwave-Tab HS

Those first two macros are problematic since they remove your ability to adjust for rage supply. You do NOT always want to cleave, and you definitely do NOT always want to HS, even after a glyphed revenge. HS still costs a lot of rage even when it's "free".

Just a hint to help communicate with your healer:
# showtooltip
/cast Shield Wall
/s ---> Shield Wall (12s) <---
Same for: Last Stand and Enraged Regen (imo)
This way your healer knows you are procc'ing a CD.
Not very complicated nor usefull for actual tanking, but I do recommend it.

Lvl 72 stuff
What. Rotations? ...it is better to have a priority list.
For AoE:
Shockwave if you can and if the monsters are not gonna die in 10 secs.
Cleave. Use Bloodrage if you need rage for cleaving.
Thunderclap anytime you can.
Revenge anytime you can.
Devastate if neither is up, Shield Slam if S&B procs, but only if the previous two/three are not up.
For single target:
Heroic strike whenever you have enough rage.
Keep thunderclap debuff up.
If S&B is up, Shield Bash.
If Revenge is up, Revenge.
If none is up, Devastate.
Keep AP debuff up. Disarm if disarmable. Silence if casting.
