Troncon receives Dondi praise

Italian Rugby Federation president Giancarlo Dondi has hailed captain Alessandro Troncon`s contribution to his country`s most successful RBS 6 Nations campaign.

The veteran scrum-half turned in man-of-the-match performances against England and Scotland despite his late call-up to Italy`s squad after an absence of almost two years.

The Azzurri`s victories against the Scots and Wales saw them finish fourth in the championship, their highest place since they joined the competition in 2000.

'All the players has been fantastic, but I must admit watching Alessandro Troncon playing in this tournament was a great joy," Dondi said.

"He has been our best player, a true leader on the pitch. I personally believe he was one of the most exciting players in the whole tournament.'
