Some of the participants in Sunday's All-Ireland ladies football finals could have a career on the catwalk, according to one of Ireland's leading model agents.

Former Miss Ireland Andrea Roche, who had a successful career in modelling before setting up her own modelling agency which represents top models such as Rosanna Davidson, Roz Purcell and Pippa O'Connor, says she would be happy to talk to 'any' athlete playing in Sunday's Croke Park triple-header about a career in modelling.

The Tipperary beauty, who appeared on RTE's Celebrity Bainisteoir in 2009, told the Irish Daily Star: "Certainly, I'd talk to anybody from ladies GAA who would be serious about a career in the modelling industry.

"I'm always interested in new faces and I will talk to anybody who genuinely wants to explore a career in modelling."
