Australian Craig Gower, a former Rugby League player (now at French Club Bayonne) has been called into the Italy squad for their tour of Australia and New Zealand next month. He qualifies due to a Italian grandparent.

He's hoping to contest with Andrea Marcato and Luke McLean for the fly-half spot.

Also, fullback Andrea Masi and hooker Carlo Festuccia asked to be left out of teh squad due to the earthquake in their home city of L'Aquila last month.

Italy face Australia in Canberra on 13 June and Melbourne on 20 June before playing New Zealand in Christchurch on 27 June.
