Catrakilis released to join Jake White
The 26-year-old thus played his final match for Western Province at Newlands on Saturday, coming off the bench against the Pumas to land two conversions from two attempts.
WP Director of Rugby Gert Smal said, “Demetri has always been the ultimate professional and he goes to France with our blessing.
“All of us at WP Rugby would like to wish him well for his future, but he will always remain a Province man in our eyes!” 
Catrakilis made his Province debut in 2011, playing a total of 58 provincial matches in the Blue & White and scoring 666 points in the process.
He also played for the Stormers in Super Rugby, playing 24 games and scoring 211 points.
Catrakilis, who booted UCT to the 2011 Varsity Cup title in 2011, will best be remembered in Cape Town for his heroics in the 2012 Currie Cup Final when his two drop-goals – one off each foot – helped WP to a memorable triumph against the Sharks in Durban, ending an 11-year title drought for the team in Blue & White hoops.
Youngster Robert du Preez has stepped up in grand style for Western Province during the 2015 Currie Cup, with Kurt Coleman back from his calf injury this week.
Montpellier have a number of South African players on their books and are coached by former Springbok coach Jake White.
