Brisbane NRL halfback Karmichael Hunt orchestrated a classy trial win for his team in Rockhampton as the Broncos romped home 36-4 over North Queensland.

Usually the Broncos' fullback, Hunt eased into his new role and could join Darren Lockyer in a deadly halves combination for the Broncos this season.

Hunt crossed for two tries in the game scoring his first in the 12th minute and his second early in the second half with a solo kick and chase effort.

"It was a bit more tackling than at fullback but I had fun," Hunt said.

"The main thing for me tonight was to keep it simple."

Hunt said if the opportunity arose to play halfback again during the season he'd love the chance.

The Cowboys were plagued by handling errors and struggled with cohesion in attack throughout the game.
