Fiji reached the semi-final of the tournament but have still not received the $125,000 they are owed.



The Bati have sent out an email demanding to be paid and called for new leadership for Fiji National Rugby League.

NRL stars such as Jarryd Hayne, Api Koroisau and Korbin Sims starred for Fiji at the World Cup, where they pulled off a history-making defeat of New Zealand.

"Fiji Bati players have still not been paid semi final prize money from the RLWC 2017 after their Quarter Final upset defeat of the NZ Kiwis and then RLWC 2017 Semi Final exit to the Australian Kangaroos," the email reads.

"The Fiji Bati players are now demanding to be paid and will stand down from playing another Test/ International in 2018.

"Fiji Bati players are also demanding a Leadership overhaul of current Fiji National Rugby League (FNRL) board from their poor handling of RLWC campaign."
