In the 2004 Championship, he was third top scorer in the country with a total of 2-38 (44), once again more than any other Ulster player. He was second top scorer in the 2005 Championship, where he amassed a total of 2-29 (35), despite having played almost half the amount of games as top scorer Stephen O'Neill.
