Stone satisfied with a point

Huddersfield boss Rick Stone was satisfied with his team’s performance as they claimed a hard-fought 19-19 draw against Wigan on Friday.

Liam Marshall bagged a pair of tries as the Warriors battled back from 13-0 down to secure a point and Stone believes both sides deserved something from the game.

“I’m probably happy enough in the end – we had a good first 20 or 25 minutes and I thought we gave up that lead too easily through giving away too many penalties,” he said.

“There wasn’t much in it in the second half. Both sides showed plenty of desperation, desire and willingness to take the points which was good.

“We probably managed the game better than last week, but I’m pleased with the confidence we can take out of that to move on in the next couple of weeks.”
