List of Italy national rugby league team results

The following is a list of results for the Italy national rugby league team since their first match in 1950. Matches marked with a † are not included in the results table as they were not sanctioned by the Rugby League International Federation. The matches were either not played by two RLIF-recognised national teams, or were played with modified rules (often an extended bench and unlimited interchanges).
