IRELAND AM star Alan Hughes threw digs at Irish rugby stars in a hilarious video with an X-rated joke.
The Virgin Media star and his co-host Muireann O’Connell took a video of themselves ranking Irish rugby legends, with number one being the best and 10 being the worst.

The pair used a filter that gave them ten different names at random.
The first player to appear was Peter O’Mahony, who Muireann said is a Cork “legend retiring from international rugby this year”.
Alan chose to place him bang smack in the middle of the board.
Muireann joked that Garry Ringrose was “controversial” and said sarcastically: “Tommy Bowes’ favourite person.”
Tommy had insisted that Ringrose should have got a bigger ban for the tackle after a head-to-head tackle last month.
However, Alan didn’t care too much about the sporting politics and said: “I’m giving him a two because he looks cute.”
And while Johnny Sexton is one of the most well known Irish rugby legends, Alan ranked him a low eight and said: “Ah yeah, but he’s past it now.
“He’s a bit like Tommy.”
Muireann didn’t give Alan a chance to chose John ‘The Bull’ Hayes’ ranking as she put him straight to number three and added: “A great farmer from Limerick.
“What a legend. Love him.”
Muireann told Alan about Craig Casey‘s “funniest” online videos with Simon Zebo.
An unimpressed Alan responded saying: “Yeah, but that doesn’t mean he’s good. Give him nine.”
The Dubliner was then puzzled by Tadhg Furlong and asked: “Who’s that?”
Muireann said: “Another of our legendary rugby players.”
Alan put him at the lowest rank and said: “Is he? I don’t know him, so I’m going to put him at ten.”
‘I’M SO SORRY’
Muireann apologised saying: “Tadhg I’m so sorry about this. Sorry.”
Alan was delighted when Rory Best’s face appeared on the screen and he shouted, “I know Rory. I know somebody!”, before putting him at six.
The 61-year-old couldn’t believe Connor Murray’s retiring as he “doesn’t look old enough”.
For “looking fantastic”, the pair put him at four.
They put Jamison Gibson-Park at seven as Alan wondered if he even “played for Ireland”.
With one place left, the decision was left out of the presenters’ hands and so when Stephen Ferris came up, they had to put him as number one.
Alan shouted: “No!”
Tommy came over to see how his fellow co-hosts did and said: “Well done Fez, number one!”
Alan added: “I don’t even know who Stephen Ferris is, but Stephen, you’re getting our number one.”
Muireann jokingly said: “You’ll get one from Alan, Stephen.”
To which Alan added to the innuendo saying: “You’ll be lucky enough!”
