Fiji Airways Drua centre Eroni Vasiteri will not be moving to Connacht.
Vasiteri, who had been expected to join the Irish club on a one‑year deal, was suspended for nine weeks following an eye‑gouging incident with Canberra Viking's hooker Folau Fainga'a in the National Rugby Championship on September 29.
Connacht and Vasiteri have agreed that the move should not go ahead in light of the ban.
A statement released by Connacht today says that due to a recent suspension Vasiteri would not have been in a position to proceed with the move until later in the season.
Meanwhile the Drua will name their team this afternoon.
They will host the Queensland Country at 2pm Saturday at Churchill Park and you can catch the live commentary on our sister station Viti FM.
