The amount of careers girls can aspire to has finally expanded beyond their wildest dreams, and even though there is still a long way to go for Women’s AFL, it’s projected to become a bigger deal each year.
Fifi Box took her oldest daughter, eight-year-old Trixie Belle, to work yesterday, and as a result, she may have just found her unexpected calling in life.
And who better to inspire her than her mum’s radio co-host, and AFL legend, Brendan Fevola?
Brendan had dressed up in footy gear for their radio show Fifi, Fev and Nick on 101.9, and Fifi took to Instagram to share a sweet moment behind the scenes with Trixie.
We think it would be pretty epic to see Trixie out on the field.

Trixie’s proud mum posted a snap of the duo in a shed on her Instagram story, which featured Brendan in an American football jersey, kneeling next to an excited looking Trixie, who was rocking a very cute pink and rose gold puffer jacket.
Fifi shared a glimpse into their shenanigans in text scrawled across the pic, “We’re so proud of @brendanfevola25 attempting to break a world record today marking a footy from a helicopter.”
Hopefully, Trixie will just take inspiration from the sporting aspect of the gig rather than Brendan’s daredevil antics and perhaps one day will even embark on one of the most popular forms of football Down Under – Aussie Rules.
Australian women have been waiting a long time to receive resources to play AFL at an elite level, and its participation rate has seen an enormous increase.
Trixie will get to meet people in so many interesting careers thanks to her mum.

On the same day, Fifi and Trixie caught up with Getaway host, Catriona Rowntree and the radio host shared the moment on her socials.
“So good catching up with the gorgeous @catrionarowntree,” Fifi wrote.
Meanwhile, Fifi’s youngest daughter Daisy has been enjoying the daisies while her older sister learns about the world.
The Project host posted a picture of her admiring daisies with the caption, “My little Daisy amongst the daisies 🌺.
