A SEASON in Italy helped Filo Tiatia on his journey to becoming an All Black and now the Dragons head coach hopes a trip to Treviso can help his inform side take their next step.

The Rodney Parade club take on United Rugby Championship (URC) rivals Benetton in the European Challenge Cup today (5.30pm).

They are buoyed by Rodney Parade wins against Lyon, Connacht and Scarlets, but have not won on their travels since beating Newcastle in December 2024.

An upset at Stadio Monigo would not only end their travel sickness, but put Dragons on the brink of qualification for the knockout stages along with a chance of earning a home tie.

"A challenge for us is to prepare really well and play well away from home," said Tiatia, whose side host Newcastle in round four of the group stages.
