The Hurricanes likely to pose a decent threat to top-of-the-table Rebels HAMISH BIDWELLMICHAEL DODGE/GETTY IMAGES How much will the Rebels have to smile about, after Friday's clash with the Hurricanes. Are the Rebels any good? Whether their previous opponents this season: the Reds, Sunwolves, Brumbies, Waratahs and Sharks are up to much is a moot point. "I thought they played really well against a poor Sharks side," Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd said of the Rebels and their 46-14 win over the Sharks on Friday. The Hurricanes won their most recent match in Melbourne 38-13, before thrashing the Rebels 71-6 at Westpac Stadium last year.
