Italys heroics have been rewarded this week, and there were impressive performances from New Zealand, Ireland and Japan as well. Ireland were unable to recreate history with another win over the All Blacks after beating them 40-29 in Chicago, but both sides were full value in Dublin with the All Blacks managing a 21-9 win.Elsewhere, Italy stunned the Springboks in Florence and Japan pushed Wales right to the end in Cardiff. There were plenty of influential individual performances, but who had the biggest impact? Have your say in our vote below. 15. Luke Morahan (Australia) Luke Morahan of Australia makes a break against France Morahan has been pushing his case for a starting spot for some time and took his opportunity against France in just his second start for the Wallabies. There were some big runs from the Force full-back, who broke through the first-time Les Bleus tackles with ease. Sky Sports Rugby Podcast Will Greenwood reviews week three of the autumn internationals The 26-year-old was always looking to attack as well as putting in his tackles, while also dealing with the aerial assault from France.14. Semesa Rokoduguni (England) Semesa Rokoduguni and Jonathan Joseph analyse Englands convincing win over Fiji at Twickenham The Bath winger looked dangerous every time he got the ball, and from his first run against Fiji it looked like only a matter of time before he scored.And score he did - twice in fact. Rokoduguni was awarded man of the match for his contribution, putting himself in the frame for an outing against Argentina and Australia.13 Tevita Kuridrani (Australia) Tevita Kuridrani scored an incredible try against the French Kuridrani scored one of the tries of the season as Australia secured a 25-23 win over France in Paris. The try was reminiscent of Kevin Pennys wonder-score for Warrington in rugby league. The Brumbies centre somehow managed to get the ball down in mid-air and in touch while almost uʍop ǝpısdn.Besides his impressive dot-down, the 43-Test international also carried well and did his share of defensive work against the French.12. Wesley Fofana (France) Wesley Fofana scored a try that kept France in the game Contenders for this jersey were Italys Luke Mclean and Irelands Garry Ringrose, with the Irishman performing well out of his usual position when Robbie Henshaw left the field against the All Blacks.Fofana was superb for France, though, with some beautiful footwork and an eye for the gap. There were 14 carries from the Clermont man in Paris, racking up 74 metres, and his try brought France back into the game.11. Israel Dagg (New Zealand) Malakai Fekitoa celebrates his try with Israel Dagg (right) Elliot Daly pushed hard in an unfamiliar position on the wing, but its Dagg who gets the nod this week for his running and play-making contribution in Dublin.Dagg, a natural full-back, came onto the wing to counter Irelands aerial game which they used so well in Chicago - and handled everything they kicked at him and countered brilliantly.10. Beauden Barrett (New Zealand) Beauden Barrett scored a try after breaching the Irish line George Ford and Bernard Foley were considered, but the recently crowned World Rugby Player of the Year was instrumental for the All Blacks against Joe Schmidts men.His pace had Irelands defence stretched and his game management kept tacklers on the back foot. Plenty of defensive effort as well from the Hurricanes No 10 which, along with Brodie Retallick, kept the Irish at bay.9. Will Genia (Australia) Will Genias decision-making contributed to the undoing of France It was a smart game from Genia who kept France guessing with his awareness and decision-making. The Australian set up Bernard Foleys try with a quick tap and also made the break that resulted in Kuridranis try.A nod to Kendra Cocksedge, whose 20-point haul helped the Black Ferns produce a stunning comeback to beat England at the Stoop on Saturday.1. Lucas Noguera (Argentina) Lucas Noguera receives treatment The Argentine gave opposition prop Zander Fagerson a real lesson up-front and did the same to Moray Low when Scotlands replacement came on.The loosehead also made three carries and five tackles in Edinburgh.2. Jaba Bregvadze (Georgia) Ireland vs Australia November 26, 2016, 5:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Georgias forwards were impressive in their win over Samoa, and the Worcester hooker played a key part in proceedings.A 100 per cent record with his lineout throws was coupled with 12 tackles to complete a valuable shift in the front row.3. Tadhg Furlong (Ireland) Tadhg Furlong made 10 carries for Ireland One of the weekends star performances from the Irish prop who made his mark on the All Blacks defence. Furlong carried brilliantly, with Kieran Read and Brodie Retallick sent packing in their attempts to try to stop him.The Leinster man scrummed well and offered a few offloads from his carries on his way to beating three defenders.4. Brodie Retallick (New Zealand) Highlights of Irelands Autumn International clash against the All Blacks in Dublin The All Blacks promised an improved performance in Dublin and Retallick led the way in the forwards. The 2014 World Rugby Player of the Year contributed an enormous 17 tackles and also carried the ball seven times.His work ethic around the fringes at the rucks and mauls ensured Ireland struggled to attack from close range.5. Devin Toner (Ireland) Devin Toner (left) wins the ball despite attention from Kieran Read Toner was Irelands go-to man at the lineout, winning nine out of 17 throws at the Aviva Stadium while also making the most tackles out of all the forwards with nine hits.It was an influential performance from Toner who went up against the best second-row pairing in the world in the returning Retallick and Sam Whitelock.6. Josh van der Flier (Ireland) Josh van der Flier played 59 minutes against New Zealand after replacing CJ Stander Van der Flier replaced CJ Stander and played one of the games of his life - a huge effort from him with some big carries and even bigger tackles.Van der Fliers 51 metres was the most by any Irishman on the day - and also tied second overall in the game - and his 12 carries were impressive given his late introduction to the game in comparison with some of his team-mates.7. Simone Favaro (Italy) England vs Argentina November 26, 2016, 1:30pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Irelands Sean OBrien was immense against New Zealand - he did not stop carrying for 80 minutes - however, we have to recognise Favaros role in helping Italy beat the Springboks for the first time.The flanker carried well - making the most metres from the second-most carries in his team - but it was in defence he truly shone, making 12 tackles while effecting two crucial turnovers.8. Amanaki Mafi (Japan) Amanaki Mafi made 12 carries for Japan in Cardiff There were some huge performances from the likes of Jamie Heaslip, and Italy captain Sergio Parisse, but they are beaten to the No 8 jersey by Mafi.Another tireless display from the former Bath man who was inspirational against Wales. Mafi was second in Japans ranking for carries, but his 18 tackles were unmatched by any team-mate in Cardiff.Upgrade to Sky Sports now and get 12 months half price. Hurry, offer ends December 4th!

Petersburg of the KHL. Belov was a free agent last summer when he signed a one-year contract with the Oilers. In 57 games this season he had one goal and six assists with 34 penalty minutes in Edmonton. . "Yes, Id like to get them in," Detroits rookie manager said. "Mother Natures going to have a say in that." Sure enough, the Tigers had their game against the Kansas City Royals postponed because of rain on Thursday. . The visitors missed a host of good chances to win the game, and were left to rue substitute Ivo Ilicevics strike against the crossbar in the 86th minute, when he only had the goalkeeper to beat.MONTREAL - S.J. Green wont be hitting the CFL open market.The eight-year veteran receiver, who was slated to become a free agent Feb. 10, signed a three-year contract extension with the Montreal Alouettes on Wednesday. The deal allows Green, 29, to remain with the only CFL team he has known.Ive been here eight years and its been like a second home to me, Green said during a news conference. One dream I always had growing up as a young boy was to be able to play professional football and to be able to play for one organization.Bob (Als owner Bob Wetenhall) and Jim (general manager Jim Popp) have given me an opportunity to fulfil a life-long dream and be a part of one organization my entire career.Greens return was important to Montreal with receiver Duron Carter expected to sign soon with the NFLs Indianapolis Colts. Carter was the Alouettes receiving leader last year with 75 catches for 1,030 yards and seven TDs while Green was next with 53 receptions for 835 yards and four TDs.Green was certainly productive in the playoffs for Montreal. He had seven catches for 95 yards and a touchdown in the clubs 50-17 home victory over the B.C. Lions in the East Division semifinal, then recorded six receptions for 126 yards and three TDs in a 40-24 road loss to the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the conference final.Ultimately, its all about winning Grey Cups and winning rings, said Green, a two-time Grey Cup champion with the Alouettes. I want to help bring that ring back here to Montreal.The expectation was Montreal would announce the signing of former NFL receiver Austin Collie on Wednesday following published reports Tuesday night that Collie had agreed to terms with the CFL club. But the 29-year-old Hamilton native, who has played for both Indianapolis and the New England PPatriots, emphatically denied he was heading to the Alouettes.ddddddddddddDont believe wht u hear, Collie tweeted Wednesday. The report of me plying for Montreal is completely false.The 2014 season was a roller-coaster affair for the Alouettes. They began the campaign losing seven of their first eight games before going 8-2 the rest of the way to finish second in the East Division. The resounding turnaround earned head coach Tom Higgins a nomination for the leagues coach-of-the-year award, which was ultimately won by John Hufnagel of the Grey Cup-champion Calgary Stampeders.Green was a CFL all-star in 2013 when he had 83 receptions for 1,197 yards and 13 touchdowns. He has registered 368 catches for 5,518 yards and 38 TDs in 92 regular-season games with Montreal.Greens signing continues whats been a busy off-season for Popp, who has re-signed 12 potential free agents including standout linebackers Chip Cox and Bear Woods and running back Tyrell Sutton. He also acquired veteran Fred Stamps from the Edmonton Eskimos for fellow international receiver Kenny Stafford on Jan. 16.Today obviously Im a better football coach than I was yesterday, Higgins said. Its just a good sign that players want to be back.Were looking forward to the season getting started.Montreal still has six other players slated to become free agents next month, including defensive back Jerald Brown and cornerback Geoff Tisdale, both starters last season.Club president Mark Weightman said the return of proven veterans like Green is important for the Alouettes to create a sense of continuity.(Gereen is) one of the most exciting players in this league . . . who gives us another example of consistency to allow us to build our franchise moving into 2015 and beyond, Weightman said.
