Rosenbrock was a key defender, used mostly at full-back by Collingwood. He didn't play in the first five rounds of the 1960 season but played every other game for the rest of the year, including Collingwood's grand final loss.[3]
A broken leg sustained early in the 1963 VFL season kept him out of the side for the rest of the year and he wasn't able to make his way back.[4]
