Waratah's halfback, Iliseva Batibasaga is excited about playing against the Rooster Chicken Fijiana Drua this weekend in what could be her final Super W match.

Batibasaga is from Namatakula Village in Nadroga and works as a Early Childhood teacher in Australia.

The Sydney Morning Herald reports Batibasaga is considering offers to play overseas next year.

The 37-year-old has not made any public announcements about her retirement but the veteran halfback says it would be a very humbling experience to round out a celebrated NSW career in the Super W grand final.

Inline for her third World Cup campaign for Australia later this year in New Zealand, Batibasaga will not be switching allegiances but is excited to be playing against Fijiana Drua in the final.

The Fijiana Drua will meet the Waratahs at 4 pm Saturday.
