Gabriele Rubini (born 29 June 1983 in Frascati, Italy) is a former semi-professional Italian rugby player and currently he is a television presenter for DMAX.
Sporting career
Frascatano is the brother of professional rugby player Giulio Rubini Gabriele . He played rugby from an early age, after making his debut in 2002 for Rugby Roma Olimpic against Parma; he became an athlete of national status, so that the Italian Rugby Federation delayed his transfer to the following season.[2] Between 2003 and 2005 he played for Rome, making a total of 12 appearances in Series A games.[3]
At the end of the season he moved to New Zealand, and was recruited by Poneke Rugby Club near Wellington. To earn his living, he began working in a restaurant, and thus developed an interest in culinary arts alongside his passion for rugby.[4]
Returning to Italy in 2007 he played for Rovigo in the Super 10 league, and from 2008, first in Series A, then in Excellence with Lazio until a ligament injury ended his sporting career in 2011.
Meanwhile, he had trained as a chef with an international course from which had graduated in 2010.
