Cosh’s quartet helped the Bulls account for the Highlanders 44-19 at home, winger Tubunakoro Sakeasi also bagging a double.
For the second week in a row the Bulls made a second half charge, with only eight points in it at half-time.
It was a different story at Gunnedah, where Narrabri led 22-5 at half-time before going on to record a 32-12 win and leapfrog the Red Devils into fourth.
Jake Packer, Peter Meppem, Jacob Booby and Michael Cain all found the tryline.
Down at Quirindi, the Lions withstood a second half fightback from Barraba to hold on and secure their first points for the season 31-24.
Fullback George Duddy crossed twice for the home side, who would have been bouyant at the break up 24-5.
But the Rams lifted their game in the second half to finish within a converted try.
