York Knights picked up the first victory of Magic Weekend 2026 with an entertaining 36-24 win over fellow Super League strugglers Huddersfield Giants.
Knights' fifth league win of the season takes them above Toulouse before their match against fellow French side Catalans Dragons on Saturday evening.
Two tries each from Cody Hunter and Jon Bennison - as well as one apiece from David Nofoaluma, Nikau Williams and Denive Balmforth - sealed York's second successive win and the two points at Everton's Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Chris Patolo, Zane Dunford, Oli Russell and George Flanagan all scored for the Giants in a match that got away from them early in the second half as they remain rooted to the bottom of the Super League standings.
