John O'Dwyer is 31- no longer a Tipperary hurler. The game has moved in a different direction and players like John feel they no longer fit the modern hurling pattern. It's an interesting take on our wonderful sport- and it's echoed by others. All-Ireland winner, All-star, and a player who still feels he is 'The best on the field' believes it could be up to Kilkenny to save hurling. What does that mean?

This weekend it's the All-Ireland hurling semi-finals- they're both live on BBC television, BBC iplayer & BBC Sport website. John tells Thomas & Oisin how they will play out and who, he believes, will make the All-Ireland final.

John also suffers from migraines. They're not just a headache and had a huge impact on his life when playing for Tipperary. Did it all start from a concussion? He brings us into that world. We also discuss the combine world that hurling is travelling on. Is it athlete more than skill?

Bubbles is also an accomplished Gaelic footballer- good enough to play county. Could we ever see him in blue and gold again?

It's the GAA Social with John O'Dwyer- top of the list, why is he called bubbles?
