Another idea carried over, apologies for forgetting who kicked it off back on TIA. Please claim your birthright!!!
Trivia…ask a question, whatever topic, and whoever answers it correctly gets to go next. You only get one chance to answer each question.
Art to kick it off…
Michelangelo’s David is probably the most famous sculpture in the world.
Where was it originally intended the statue would be placed (generally speaking)?

BANG! Here’s a plaster one they put up in recent years for an anniversary.
There was going to be a whole series of OT figures. Fell by the wayside but…
It’s like Man Utd attempting to shore up their defense.

Hired to build a statue of the ancestor of the duke of Milan’s family.
Ironically didnt happen as the metal that was reserved to make mould for the statue was used to make cannon balls. And then the duke was deposed shortly after

Right then…
Since no one got the last one…let’s go with sport…
In what year did Australia first field a Test 11 that did not include a New South Welshman?
Hints available if you get stuck.

I presume we’re talking cricket here, rather than Rugby (League or Union)? Doh, you said 11.
The implication is that it’s fairly late. I’ll go with 2002.

Sorry! Yes…cricket!!!
2002…no.
That was a total random guess but I think you might need to help people with whether it’s before or after my guess! Or maybe say who the opposition was?

Hang on, just read at the oval.
I got nothing.
We toured in 89 I’ll go 85 although I reckon Matthews was playing by then.
Fucked if I know.
Nah, I think it will be later (2009, 2013, 2015, 2019).
