i recall that the super rugby quality was not as good as they hoped and that's what stopped the Phoenix.

Cheers don't remember that 2015 trip to Fiji at all. But yeah followed Nix less then.

Shame they haven't done it again since. I guess there is a cost flying & accommodating a squad.

This report says they got about 12,000 to the first game, a 2-1 win for the Nix. Helped I guess by local hero Roy playing for Fiji (got their goal). 2nd game a 2-2 draw.
