Julien Saubade is a French rugby union footballer, currently playing for the Paris rugby club Racing M�tro in the top level of French club rugby, the Top 14. His usual position is on the wing. Saubade was originally playing with Biarritz Olympique, where he had been developed, though he moved to US Dax, playing in the Pro D2, initially for the 2003 season, but he ended up staying there until July 2005, since he could not get the opportunity to play in Biarritz's first team. He was the second division's top scorer with 12 tries. The club did not seem to be ready to trust him despite his selections in the French U-19 and then U-21 teams. Therefore he moved to Paris to play for Stade Fran�ais, among the �lite of French rugby. At the start, the transition from the Pro D2 to the Top 14 was quite hard for him, and Saubade made several unusual mistakes for such a promising player like him, notably one which made Paris' coach, Fabien Galthi�, furious and which cost his team to lose a match in Montpellier.
