The Rooster Chicken, Fijiana Drua, should expect a torrid encounter against NSW Waratahs in their debut Super W grand final at AAMI Park in Melbourne, Australia, this Saturday.

Drua head coach Senirusi Seruvakula in an earlier interview said they must work hard, if they are to win the Super W title.

“We’ve to reflect on our last game and rectify our mistakes,” he added.

Waratahs, the defending Super W champions are out to avenge their 29-10 loss to the Drua.

The loss ended their 20-match winning streak. Waratah captain Grace Hamilton likened them to a ‘wounded beast’ ready for revenge.

However, there will be an interesting battle in three key positions, which could determine the final outcome of the final.

#1. SEREIMA LEWENIQILA v GRACE HAMILTON

This showdown will be at the back of the scrum. The tireless Leweniqila is a thinking No.8. She showed her class as she controls play and set-up attacks.

A strong defender and reads the game well. Leweniqila, is the one player look up to when the going gets tough. And the same could be said for Hamilton, the Waratahs and Wallroos captain. She commands the respect of her team-mates and leads by example from the front.

#2. ROELA RADINIYAVUNI v MAHALIA MURPHY

Radiniyavuni started at full-back when they walloped Rebels and Reds. Then she was moved to centre.

For the final, she could be moved back to don the No.15 jersey when she is most lethal.

Radiniyavuni reads the opposition defence well and is able to exploit them easily with ball at hand.

Has an eye for gaps and is very elusive coupled with her speed.

Murphy, holds a record of scoring five tries against the Rebels and is very dangerous when given space to move. She is fast and strong.

#3. BITILA TAWAKE v EVA KARPANI

Tawake, our tighthead prop and captain inspires her team-mates to go the extra mile. She leads from the front and very dangerous in broken play.

Karpani, lives up to her reputation as an impact player. When in full flight, she is hard to bring down.

In the final, she will come handy as the Waratahs will try to keep the ball closer to their big forwards to control the tempo of the game.
