It's a surprisingly super fun episode for a week that should, on all accounts, not have been fun for manly supporters.

Tune in to hear a week of team list choices and more origin talk! And a few fun quizzes to end the ep.

Special segment this week: we discuss our current ideal Origin line-ups (to be continued).

Special segment for this week: who is each team's Marquee player? We discuss.

Manly Sea Eagles haven't beat the Penrith Panthers since 2018. That is...until this weekend. How do you think Dad and Si are feeling this week?

So, we went to the Manly Dragons game on the weekend...I'll let the intro music speak for itself :)

Dad's dreams of an undefeated year for the Mighty Eagles come crashing to the ground. But fear not, our spirits are still high as we look back on what was another entertaining (if not somewhat disappointing for those who bleed maroon and white) week of footy.

With the fortress of Brooky secured, it's nothing but good vibes this week at Notes from the Nest. In this two part episode, with a little break in the middle for yours truly Si and Dad to play their touch grand final, we talk Round 3 brilliances and hopes for Round 4. Plus, whats our opinions on teammates having a go at each other on the field?

It's episode three and there's more footy to talk about than ever before. We've got a round-up of Week 1 results, a thorough Team-list Tuesday breakdown and Si has some questions about a game from 1987 that she watched on Youtube.

All in all, it's the same old us - the (maybe delusional) hopes for Manly, the slight hints of chaos, and the passion for what we've seen and what we're yet to see on the field. Oh, and bonus points for anyone who can tell us what 'Wormald' is.

We're back for week two. And with a round zero Manly win under the belt, you could say we're some happy campers! We talk Vegas, how our podcasting debut went, and thoughts on the upcoming Round One.
