Matthew "Matt" Rosa (born 23 November 1986) is an Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League (AFL).
He is a midfielder who was recruited as the number 29 draft pick in the 2004 AFL Draft from North Ballarat. Rosa made his debut for the West Coast Eagles in Round 17, 2005 against the Sydney Swans. He was selected for first two weeks of the 2006 finals, but then was dropped for the last two weeks of finals, being named as an emergency for the 2006 AFL Grand Final,[1] which the Eagles won.
The 2007 season bought new opportunities for Rosa, playing 22 games for the home and away season and being selected in the squad to play in both the two games in the finals series. He suffered from shin splints in 2008, restricting him to just 8 games for the season.[2] He returned in 2009 to play all 22 games.
He extended his contract with the West Coast Eagles during the 2008 season.[2]
