Colbon's a decent little player...IMO. Not saying he's world class, you've not got that many in your first team nevermind letting ones go. David Hodgson for example, when he left you wouldn't have thought much of it but he's turned into a very good winger who know doubt could have served you well during some difficult times.
Melling is another who has impressed me at times as has good ol' Bryn...gone a bit of the boil recently though.
Colbon is a decent 'not so little' player your right but he isn't good enough for Wigan.
Hodgson was another player in a long line of players that couldn't cope with the pressure of playing for a big club. Both him and Brown have thrived in a less pressurised enviroment and fair play to them. They're not quite good enough even now to hold down a place in this Wigan side.
Melling and Hargreaves
both nowhere near good enough for a place here at Wigan.
Wigan 'used' to let alot of their homegrown players go but at the end of the day theres probably only Shaun Briscoe who most people would want back. The rest aren't as good as the players we have in our side at the moment and we now have a group of kids we're going to hold onto that will be better players then the ones mentioned.
It's a good job Wigan have in the past let some youngsters leave because they've helped prop up half of superleague. We will now keep our best youngsters so clubs night have to fend for themselves abit more.
