Huddersfield celebrated their Super League survival with victory over Catalans Dragons in Perpignan.

Robbie Paul touched down to give the Giants an early lead before Justin Murphy replied for the French outfit.

But Chris Nero and Stuart Donlan then put Huddersfield on course for success with further tires.

Julien Rinaldi crossed to give the hosts late hope, but Martin Aspinwall secured the Giants' win with his side's fourth try.

Huddersfield boss Jon Sharp:
"I was delighted with the way the players went about this very tough task.

"Catalans threw an awful lot at us but we stood up to the pressure superbly and thoroughly deserved the win.

"This victory puts us in an excellent mood for our final home game of the season when we play Bradford next Sunday."

Dragons coach Mick Potter:
"Our supporters have been superb this season and we wanted to send them all home with a win.

"We created a lot of opportunities but failed to capitalise and you can't afford to do that at Super League level."
