Rosman has appeared in several matches in the AFC Cup while playing for the Protectors. He captained the team twice during Home United's back to back wins against Maldivian side, Club Valencia in the 2009 AFC Cup Group Stage.

He also has a goal to his name in the 2008 AFC Cup, in which he scored from 30 yards against Dempo SC in the first leg of the 2008 AFC Cup quarter-finals on 16 September 2008.[2]

He made his debut for Woodlands Wellington on 21 February 2013 in a 2–2 draw against Warriors F.C.[3] and scored his first goal for the Rams on 5 March 2013 against his former club, Home United, with a free kick from his own half which evaded the entire Protectors' defence.[4]
