Career
He played for Pau from the late 1990s through to 2004, when he moved to his current club, Biarritz. Traille made his debut for France in 2001 in a match against the Springboks in Paris. France won the match 20 points to 10. He subsequently made a further two appearances for the national side that year, playing in a test against Australia in Marseille which was won by one point, with the final score 14 to 13 to France, as well as a test against Fiji in St Etienne, which France won by over 60 points.

Traille played in all of France's matches during the 2002 Six Nations Championship. France won all of their five games, which saw them complete a grandslam and win the tournament. He received another six caps for France later that year, playing in tests against Argentina, Australia, South Africa, the All Blacks and Canada.

In 2003 Traille played in all of France's matches during the 2003 Six Nations Championship, with France winning three of their five games.

Traille was included in France's 2003 Rugby World Cup squad in Australia and played in all of France's five pool matches.

The following year, Traille was a part of France's grandslam victory at the 2004 Six Nations Championship, playing in all of their five victories.
