Huddersfield shake off a slow start to claim their third away win of the season as the Broncos seek a first Super League point.

Huddersfield shook off a slow start to claim their third away win of the season and leave the Broncos still seeking a first Super League point.But the visitors fought back to register five unanswered tries and secure victory at Plough Lane.

The Broncos' opening score was fully deserved as Leyland raced on to his own grubber kick, winning a sprint against Kevin Naiqama and benefiting from an off-ball tackle that prompted referee Tom Grant to award a penalty try. With none of the three conversion opportunities taken by Harvey Livett, all from wide positions, Huddersfield remained within their hosts' reach at half-time - but that soon changed after the turnaround.

The home side kept battling and might have pulled back a consolation score through Jarred Bassett, but he was felled by a superb challenge from Giants skipper Luke Yates, back in the line-up after concussion. "It seemed like Esan was going to score on one of those last tackles, from there we just lost our way a little bit in terms of intensity in defence and we threw about three interceptions in the space of four sets, which gave London a bit of a leg-up.
