Finals footy can seem like a matter of life and death, so it’s great to have kids remind us every so often that it’s only a game.

That was the case this afternoon when West Coast coach Adam Simpson brought his adorable daughter Elsa along to sit in on his AFL Tonight interview on Fox Footy.

Simpson gauged the opinion of Elsa to kick off the chat, with his youngest child playing a starring role in responding.

When asked by her father who the best team is, Elsa replied: “The Eagles, mostly, because most people go for the Eagles”.

As for the worst team? “The Dockers.”

When Simpson asked who had told her that, his daughter pointed to her primary school teacher, Miss Addison.

Later in the interview, Elsa amused herself by casting shadow puppets against the backdrop.

It follows a similar starring role in another AFL Tonight chat from last year, with the coach’s daughter fast becoming an interview favourite.
