Patric Michael Cilliers (born 3 March 1987 in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa) is a rugby union player, who joined the Stormers in 2013 for the Super Rugby competition and also plays internationally for South Africa as a prop.
Cilliers began his professional career with the Sharks, but his time with the team was limited by knee injuries. He transferred with fellow Shark Michael Rhodes to the Lions at the end of the 2010 Currie Cup season.[1] Cilliers was selected in the starting line-up for the Currie Cup final against the Sharks, and scored a try in the memorable 42-16 victory.[2]
He previously played for the Lions in the Super Rugby and the Golden Lions in the Currie Cup competition.[3]
He made his debut for the Springboks on 18 August 2012 against Argentina.
