Assuming equally skilled/geared. Feral has advantage. Whoever said that the Ferals dps in bear sucks, never played a druid, we do quite respectable dps in bear. I've fought many rogues/wars on my feral and I have yet to lose given, level conditions, in most cases I don't even need to shift out to heal.
I find that pve gear mix works even better than full pvp. When I mangle and maul you for 1k plus crits at nearly 50% crit unbuffed, keeping feral fire and lacerate on you plus the ap debuff, feral charge. No matter how skillful you are, you will lose. Unless I do something really stupid.

With my druid, I have been jumped by many a rogue and unless my health is down from just fighting a mob or they can stun me in caster form, I generally don't have too many issues with them. With Instant cast cure poison that lingers, your poisons don't do much, now with Rogues not being able to shadow step out of roots, roots working indoors, natures grasp hitting 100% (and for me warstomp) it is easy enough to get a little distance if the need to heal comes. I was feral, just switched to moonkin. These experiences are typical of a world PvP battle, 1v1. Given that in BGs I find myself out geared so some stuns and such are not there, it may just be the ones jumping me in the world are n00b leveled rogues and trying to prove something, but it has been my experience.
@ OP - If you are fighting a feral that doesn't even get out of bear, you are either under geared or need to do more control of the fight. My Rogue is only in mind 30s, so my attacking as a rogue PvP experience is limited, but coming from experience in BGs where a rogue may keep me stunned in caster for a majority of the fight, while they dps me from behind before I can't really get off a heal and shift. If you can lay some poisons on them to get them out of bear form and have them stunned to beat a little on them so they need to get a heal off, then you may be able to get them into caster, stun and tear into them.
