Watch: Niall Horan And Irish Sports Stars Pay Tribute To 100-Cap Rory Best

Three of the North's most famous sporting sons and One Direction's Niall Horan have combined to make a Rory Best tribute video ahead of his 100th cap.

Rory Best has been an incredible servant to both Ulster and Irish rugby and this Saturday he will mark an historic occasion when he leads Ireland out against Australia and marks a century of caps.

It's fair to say that Best is one of the most consistent performers in a green jersey. He produces the goods again and again in the big games, doesn't make many mistakes and leads by example with his conduct on and off the pitch. This was never clearer than in both his performance during and his class after Ireland's tough loss against New Zealand on Saturday - a match in which Ireland arguably lost a couple of close-cut decisions and faced some tough treatment from the All Blacks.

So it's no surprise that Best has the respect of some of the best sportspeople from this island - more specifically, the northern part - as well as a certain Irish member of the world's most famous boyband.

Golfer Rory McIlroy, Horan, Steve Davis and Carl Frampton dished out the praise to Best.

Frampton in particular is highly amusing - he displays the dry wit they're famous for 'up' in that part of the world.

Rumours that the three lads and Horan are currently collaborating to form a 1D tribute act are yet to be confirmed.
