It was a special Live Throw-In from Wexford this week as we previewed a bumper All Ireland Hurling Semi-Final weekend.

Gorey was alive with excitement as Billy Byrne, Ursula Jacob, Brendan Cummins, John Mullane and Colm Keys joined Michael Verney in the Ashdown Park Hotel for a night of stories looking back on old clashes and rivalries and analysis looking ahead to the weekend.

Wexford or Tipp? Limerick or Kilkenny? It's too close to call with the panel split on both games but either way it promises to be two cracking semi-finals to look forward to.

Keep an eye out as well for tickets for the next Live Throw-In special that will be broadcasting from Croke Park the night before the All Ireland Hurling Final.
