Hull KR 8-30 Huddersfield

Huddersfield leapfrogged Leeds in to second place in the table with a comfortable win at Hull KR.

Nathan Brown’s men secured their seventh win of the season, although it looked unlikely after a quarter of the match, with tries from Kris Welham and Liam Colbon giving the home side an 8-0 lead.

But the Giants hit back before the break, and tries from Michael Lawrence and Luke Robinson, and a conversion from Brett Hodgson meant the score was 10-8 at the break.

In the second half, Huddersfield took control, and tries from Shaun Lunt, Stephen Wild and Lawrence’s second sealed a 30-8 win.
