One stat shows how good a start Offaly's hurlers and footballers have made in the league
With the exception of a handful of outstanding games delayed by the weather, three rounds have been played in the Allianz Hurling and Football Leagues.
And with all those games in the books, one stat shows just how good a start Offaly's hurlers and footballers have made to the league.
As it stands, Offaly is the only county not to have lost a game in either code.
The county's footballers have won three from three while the hurlers have two wins and a draw from their three games.
Offaly sit second on score difference in Division 3 of the Allianz Football League behind Kildare while the hurlers are atop the Division 1B hurling table.
The hurlers face a big challenge this Saturday when they travel to take on Dublin at 5pm in Croke Park as part of a double header with the clash of the Dublin and Derry footballers.
Offaly's footballers are in action on Sunday when they travel to play Fermanagh in Brewster Park.
It could be a pivotal weekend for both teams but the signs are certainly positive midway through the league campaigns.
