A massive first half display was enough to see Huddersfield do for high flying favourites Warrington and reach the semis. leading 23-0 at the break thanks to scores from Wild, Gilmour, Kirmond and Brown and the boot of Brough and Hodgson.
They had to withstand a second period fight back from Warrington who scored through two a piece by Higham and Hicks with Westwood slotting three kicks. However it was the Giants who had the last word with an interception try by Leroy Cudjoe to give us the final score of:
