Rory Best admits reaching 100 caps could rank as the top achievement of his glittering Ireland career.Best will become Irelands fifth centurion in Saturdays autumn Test clash with Australia in Dublin, joining Brian ODriscoll, Paul OConnell, Ronan OGara and John Hayes in the exclusive set.The evergreen 34-year-old Ireland captain has no intentions of easing up, but conceded that hitting triple figures in Test caps is a milestone he never expected.I think its probably safe enough to say I didnt ever anticipate this, said Ireland captain Best. When you get your first cap for Ireland its like a dream come true and all you want to do is get the next one.After that every time you get picked you feel incredibly lucky. Then you tick quite close to 50 and you think imagine getting to 50. But now to be on the verge of 100 caps, its quite difficult to believe.I think it will probably be more important whenever I eventually do retire, which will hopefully be a while, and you sit back and look at everything youve achieved.But when I do look back this will rank up there as one of, if not the best achievements Ive had in the game. I feel Im playing well. Theres a lot made of turning 30, everyone then says youre done. But for me age is just a number.When youve never been overly fast and you lose a little bit of pace as you get older, hopefully it doesnt matter. Hopefully you make it up in your head.I dont see that Im playing any worse than I ever did, so I feel fit, happy with my game and the big thing for me is Im really enjoying it at the minute.Ireland now have the chance to become the first northern hemisphere team since England in 2003 to beat the southern hemispheres big three in a calendar year.Sir Clive Woodwards World Cup winners saw off South Africa and Australia en route to landing the William Webb Ellis Cup in Sydney in 2003.England had beaten New Zealand in Wellington earlier that year, in a feat that has yet to be repeated by a Test side from the north.Irelands superlative 40-29 win over New Zealand in Chicago on November 5 now sets up the chance for a rare clean sweep, following the 26-20 victory over South Africa in June.Australia have won four matches on the spin however, and arrive in Dublin on their best run of form since their seven-Test winning sequence that carried them to the World Cup final.Best will keep himself calm and collected from all the building clamour by sticking to his tried and tested routines.The gritty farmers son from Banbridge will seek out his shorts and socks from Irelands kit room for the 100th time on Friday night - then take any small moment to himself to reinforce his own role.I have a fairly set routine, Ill go and get the shorts and socks and that probably includes watching Conor Murray, Simon Zebo and Pete OMahony destroy the bag mans room, John Moore, said Best.Then its just trying to get as much sleep as you can, then probably sleep a little more tomorrow. Then when you get little moments you have to think about the game and try to rehearse your role within that, rehearse the lineouts and things.I have a set routine and Ill definitely more so than any other week Ill try to stick to it over the next 24 hours.

Adelaide United are taking cold comfort from being here before: winless and bottom of the A-League.United were in a similar predicament last season but recovered spectacularly to win the league - though Reds defender Dylan McGowan is tiring of any comparison to the fresh season.Our performances are slightly better but if we continue to compare us to last season, its not going to do us any good, McGowan said on Thursday.Last season we went on a phenomenal run. But we cant bank on that happening again.So we are going to need to start picking up points.The Reds flew to Perth for Friday nights fixture against the fifth-placed Glory with two draws and four losses to open their championship defence.We are not kidding anyone on saying this was our plan to be in this position, McGowan said.We wanted to go out and win round onee.ddddddddddddBut McGowan was adamant morale remained solid within the United camp.Everyone is together, he said.Its obviously a very frustrating time, being at the bottom of the league is never nice for anybody.But we have got that example from last year, that if you do stick together this is what can happen.McGowan said Adelaides senior core were preaching a simple message.You always have the faith, he said.We think were a good side and whether that accounts to going on a run like last season or whether we just pick up more points and make the top three, top two, then so be it.But teams are stronger this year than what they were last year and we are obviously going to have to rise to that.
