A few answers for you.

1. No. I'm not!

2. Majority come from N Ireland - about 60% Remainder are mainly from the South with the odd New Zealander, Englishman, Jamaican, Fijian thrown in etc.

3. No rivalry except friendly rivalry. You get loads of banter, but nothing malicious. See all the Tricolours mixed in with the Red Hand of Ulster?
