Under Mick O'Dwyer he won his first Munster and All-Ireland medals in 1975, and he played in nine All-Ireland finals, winning eight. His honours also include eleven Munster titles, four National Football Leagues, six Railway Cup titles with Munster and six All Stars at three different positions. After retiring he trained the Limerick senior football team in the 1990s.
