BRIEF-Rugby-Italy lose trio for tour of Australia, New Zealand

ROME, May 31 (Reuters) - Italy coach Nick Mallett will be unable to call on prop Martin Castrogiovanni and flyhalf Andrea Marcato for June's tour of Australia and New Zealand because of injuries, the Italian rugby federation said on Sunday.

Scrumhalf Simon Picone has also pulled out for personal reasons of the squad for two matches against the Wallabies on June 13 and 20 and a test against the All Blacks in Christchurch.

Mallett has brought in prop Ignacio Rouyet and flyhalf Kristopher Burton, who both have two caps, while uncapped Gran Parma scrumhalf Tito Tebaldi replaces Picone.
