Huddersfield Giants crushed Catalans Dragons 42-20 in a Super League clash, marking their third consecutive win. The match coincided with the announcement of Huddersfield's move to Dewsbury next season, celebrated by nearly 9,000 fans at Accu Stadium who attended free of charge. Six first-half tries—Sam Halsall (2), Fenton Rogers, Connor Wrench, Sam Hewitt, and Zane Dunford—pushed the lead to 36-0 at halftime.

Post-announcement, the atmosphere dimmed slightly, but Catalans Dragons, reduced to 12 men after Franck Maria's red card, surged with tries from Ben Condon (2), Leo Darrelatour, and Charlie Staines. Huddersfield's Jim Lenihan praised the team's progress, noting a "bit of an evolution" under his leadership, while aiming to avoid the wooden spoon and secure Super League status with the Dewsbury move. The win showcased resilience despite the mixed second-half mood.
