Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei whitianga - I whakaarohia a Cardinal Antonelli he "papabile" Itari e haere ana ki te papa papa 2005
i kōwhiria ai a Pope Benedict XVI, ā, ko Antonelli tētahi kaitiaki pōti. Kaore a Cardinal Antonelli e ahei ki te pooti i roto i nga huihuinga papal a muri ake nei i te mea kua 80 ia i te 18 o Noema 2016. I reti ia hei perehitini o te Kaunihera Pontifical mo te Whanau i te 26 o Pipiri 2012.
