Giants coach Luke Robinson had urged his players to make sure Cudjoe’s remarkable one-club career had a happy home finish.<\/p>\n

But he was left kicking seats with frustration as his misfiring team struggled to break down Paul Rowley’s collection of loan signings, misfits and youth players.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils are sure to finish bottom after a traumatic season which has seen them twice have HMRC winding-up petitions adjourned<\/a>, allowing them to complete the campaign.<\/p>\n

They have also suffered a player exodus and sustainability cap issues, and last week lost assistant coach Kurt Haggerty<\/a>, who was earmarked to replace Rowley next season, due to their perilous financial position.<\/p>\n

They have rallied under Rowley, however, and forward Sangare marked his 150th career appearance by barging his way over the line after just seven minutes.<\/p>\n

And with Milnes converting and then kicking a penalty it looked like the away side would go into the break with an eight-point cushion.<\/p>\n

Huddersfield, struggling for rhythm and ideas, and without a try in their two previous matches, finally pieced something together as Swift caught a high ball and off-loaded to Joe Greenwood, who sent Golding over for his first try of the season.<\/p>\n

Huddersfield hammered away in the second half with little success until Swift, after a spell on the bench, returned with the energy to step inside and pirouette over the line.<\/p>\n

Salford cracked, and Gagai caught Oliver Russell’s chip to score before Tiaki Chan and George Flanagan were sin-binned for a scuffle.<\/p>\n

Rush’s try in the final minute set the scene perfectly for Cudjoe, who duly slotted the ball between the posts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Giants coach Luke Robinson had urged his players to make sure Cudjoe’s remarkable one-club career had a happy…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":137139,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[5903,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-137138","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rugby","8":"tag-rugby","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137138"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/137138\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/137139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=137138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=137138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
