At club level he won five championship medals with Portlaw. Cited by many of his hurling peers as one of Waterford's greatest-ever players, Cheasty was described by Jim Irish as "the greatest centre-forward I ever played with or saw in Waterford." Cheasty retired from inter-county hurling after breaking his finger during a 1967 championship clash with Cork. (en)
