Julien Dupuy played for Biarritz and Stade Toulousain in the French Top 14 for 7 seasons before joining Leicester Tigers in 2008. At the end of his first season at Leicester he helped them win the 2009 Premiership final, scoring a conversion and a penalty. It was confirmed in April 2009 that he would remain at Leicester for the 2009-10 Guinness Premiership season, but in June 2009, Leicester coach Richard Cockerill resigned himself to losing Dupuy to Stade Français. He was only halfway through a two-year deal but has reportedly been unsettled at Leicester because his France girlfriend was homesick. After the end of the season, he left Leicester for Stade Français, where his 2009-10 Top 14 season was ended early by a 24-week ban for contact with the eye or eye area of Stephen Ferris during Stade's loss to Ulster Rugby in the 2009-10 Heineken Cup.http://www.ercrugby.com/eng/5019_14988.php The ban was reduced to 23 weeks on appeal.
