Wallaby Flanker Carlo Tizzano Says 'Benvenuto' to Italy Ahead of Nations Championship Match
Carlo Tizzano, born to Italian parents, is helping promote Italy's first test in Australia since 2017 and the new Nations Championship.
- Flanker Carlo Tizzano is helping mark 100 days until the Wallabies take on Italy in Perth on July 18 as part of rugby's new Nations Championship.
- The upcoming test marks Italy's first appearance in Australia in nine years, making Rugby Australia's choice of Tizzano as promoter particularly strategic for the tournament.
- Born in Australia to Italian parents, Tizzano plays for the Perth-based Western Force and made his test debut for the Wallabies in 2024 after declining an earlier offer to play for Italy.
- Italy defeated the Wallabies 26-19 in Udine last November and secured a historic first international victory over England in March, signaling rising competitiveness.
- Six teams from the Southern Hemisphere will face six from the Northern Hemisphere throughout the Nations Championship, with a finals weekend in London in November determining the overall winner.
