Wigan are boosting their ranks for next year so its inevitable that players are going to leave. Saidly for Liam Botham he had to end his career, his absence has set Wigans plan for next season back. But the departure of improtant, experienced players such as Guisset, Carney and Aspinwall is where i beleive Wigan are going to suffer unless they bring in top - class players to replace them. However i also think that both Dave Allen and Bob Beswick are both good strong buy's for Widnes but also i think the pair will perform at superleague level in league one.
