SIMON Rosa labelled the VFL's 119-point win over Western Australia at Port Melbourne on Saturday as one of the most satisfying days of his football career.
Rosa - the Metricon Bendigo Bombers captain - was among the VFL's best players in its 25.11 (161) to 5.12 (42) victory over WA.
Jason Cloke, Rosa's team - at the Bombers, was also part of the VFL team that destroyed the Sandgropers.
"It was fantastic to get up and win," said Rosa, who finished the game with 26 possessions and seven tackles playing across half-back.
"Because we had only trained together for a week, everyone had to play their part and do their bit for the team so that when we see the guys down the track, we can look each other in the eye and know we did our part for our team-mates.
"That was a really big focus for the game, and everyone did their bit."
Rosa spent time on Daniel Haines and Hayden Ballantyne, as well as WA captain, and 2000 Brownlow medallist, Shane Woewodin.
