Mostly outside. But he's pretty tough. Townsend would be cheaper and maybe a better option.

Thanks Matt
Interesting to see what clubs put up an offer for Rosa. Was hinted earlier today that he wants to join Don Pyke at Adelaide but I think he'll end up going to a Victorian club.
His trade value in my opinion isn't that great, would have diminished considerably of recent years and he arguably has a maximum of only 2 contract renewals to go before retiring (based on 2 year contracts). When you consider we got a 25 year old contracted player in Redden for pick 17, I think the best we get for Rosa is a second round pick, worst case is he gets through to the Pre Season draft (chance to happen) and we lose a 150 game player for nothing
My hope was that we could offload Rosa and pick 37 to Hawthorn for Anderson but that's unlikely to happen.

Can't happen, he's contracted.
Very true. Pay up for Rosa you campaigners, What do you think we get for him greenick?

worth 30-40 IMO. Isn't a guaranteed starting 22 at West Coast, and will be 29 before next season. If they're offered a late 2nd round pick they should take it. Won't receive anything near it with Free Agency next year.
Best case second rounder. Could be 3rd though. If that's the deal I hope we just keep him. Even if we lost him for nothing next year, I think the depth would be too beneficial compared to a 3rd round pick we would only use if we package it with others to get higher in the second round.
Would take a late round 2 in a heartbeat

He would be worth keeping for a year over that
Draft is crap.
Keep him.
You're more useful to us than some kid in a stinky draft.
Sorry Matt.

Sorry Matt.
Needs to be for a player or to upgrade one of our late second rounders to start of second round or we should just keep him for the last year of his contract. Worth more to us in the best 22 / on the edge of it when we are trying for a flag than a late pick.
if we're done dealing (ie. anderson off to north?) i'd be asking for a second rounder in next year's draft.
3 picks beyond 30 in a poor draft (this year) does nothing for us. unlikely we can package 2 or 3 of those for any significant upgrade alone.
rosa plus 37 for a pick somewhere between 25-30 perhaps? great value pickup for the right team.
rosa is a good enough player, one of my favourites, but i think if he really wants out we can cover the loss.

How so? By saying he's definite best 25?
My point is that we have topped up with experienced players in Redden and Jetta, with the view we're close enough to have a crack at a flag. But it's one step forward, one step back if experience goes out the door in equal measure to the experience coming in.
Yeah. And losing him for that kind of return would be a shitty outcome for us.
How is that overrating Rosa?

They got pick 50 back in the Dangerfield trade and still have their existing third-rounder. And it now looks like they'll be getting Brisbane's third-rounder in return for Jansen and Walker.
If we had got two of those picks and were able to send them over to the Swans or Brisbane in return for an upgraded pick, wouldn't that be better than 37 on its own?

As long as you guys think it's fair.
Rosa is popular so we should just trade him for whatever.
Whosha has a high opinion of Rosa. Haven't watched this year's version of Rosa, but when he wasn't injured in previous year, he was the Gaff-like player.. the one that provided good long delivery into the forward line.. Which is a value-type player at ANY club. I reckon his timing of injures have led to others taking their chance to taking his spot.. anyway
I think Essendon will try to get him..

Everyone's focused on whether he's in our best 22, 25 etc. It's more relevant where he sits within the midfield group. If he's second or third back up to outside mids then you only need to consider injuries next year and he's bound to get games.
I'd keep him until next year when his contract ends. It's up to him to back himself to get more game time.
Unless someone is in love with him enough to cough up an early second round pick, but he's not worth that.

Questionable.
Neither of those guys have great penetration on their kicking and the knock on Rosa for a long time was that he simply didn't do enough damage by foot, especially when he so often found himself with time and space by virtue of his running capacity. Prone to helicopters.
I'd be annoyed to lose Rosa but I probably wouldn't agree with that characterisation.
You are probably right, I haven't watched his every game maybe like you..
I followed him a bit when Whosha was Coach.. I always seen him as someone we(Freo) needed.. good forward entries.. and good long kick.. maybe that has changed in the last couple of years, due to a changed role or ??? But, that skill of forward entry is underrated.

The knock on him has generally been the opposite. The reason he's never been a top-liner.
WTF is a Whosha
