2012 was a tough year for the young hooker, who despite being under the world class eyes of Stephen Moore, Dan Palmer and Ben Alexander, did not feature in a Super Rugby match thanks to multiple operations to fix a knee injury.
Making a return from the knee problems that plagued him early in the season, Siliva claimed his first state cap for the ACT playing against Wales at Canberra Stadium in their mid-week match.
Coming off the bench, Siliva was competitive throughout the encounter, throwing well at the line-out and working hard around the field in attack and defence.
Siliva arrived in the Australian Capital at the conclusion of the 2011 Super Rugby season from the Western Force where he had spent the last three years in their Academy and on a Rookie Contract.
He has made 18 Super Rugby appearances, scoring 5 points since his debut in 2013.
Siliva made 9 appearances for the Rebels in 2017 but was not re-signed for the 2018 season.
