On this week's "The Sporting Life" WLR's Big Match commentator Kieran O Connor sits down to chat to a man who was there for all the highs and lows of Waterford hurling spanning 32 years.
Galway native Dr. Tom Higgins joined the Waterford backroom team when Seamus Power was manager.
He continued to work with the Desie hurlers under managers Joe McGrath, Georgie Leahy, Tony Mansfield, Gerald McCarthy, Justin McCarthy, and Davy Fitz.
In his time, he saw Waterford hammered in three Munster final defeats, as well as being relegated to division three.
While there were many lows, Tom was there for some of the biggest highs also - witnessing Munster and All-Ireland success at Minor & U21 level as well as three Munster final wins, one national league win, and one senior All-Ireland appearance in 2008.
You can hear the full chat with Tom this evening just after the 6 o clock news.
