The Queensland and Australian back created a try with his first touch of the ball, as the Broncos produced another strong win following last week's 42-18 crushing of the Titans.

Hodges entered the game in the 22nd minute as he made his long awaited return to action following an ankle injury which sidelined him for all of last season.

He pushed off three defenders to put Jordan Kahu over, as the Broncos entered halftime with a 14-0 advantage.

Josh Hoffman scored the Broncos' opening try in the 13th minute, with Corey Parker converting.

A 50-metre break from Hoffman set up the second try to winger Jack Reed.
