RORY BEST WILL line out one final time before bringing his professional rugby career to an end.
The former Ulster and Ireland captain made an emotional farewell after a disappointing World Cup quarter-final defeat to the All Blacks, but is set to play one last match next month.
Best will lace up his boots for the Barbarians when they take on Fiji in Twickenham on Saturday, 16 November in the opening game of their Autumn tour.
The hooker picked up 124 caps over 14 years of international rugby with Ireland. He also made nine Lions appearances and played 218 provincial games for Ulster.
