NORTH Ballarat Roosters have made two new coaching appointments for the defence of their Victorian Football League premiership.

Former Rooster Shane Snibson has returned to the flock as defence coach.

His predecessor Rob Waters has become Roosters' development and reserves coach, replacing newly appointed North Ballarat Rebels TAC Cup under-18 coach Glenn Wilkins.

Waters relished the new challenge after building the number one VFL back-line in 2008, his first season with the Selkirk Roosters.

Waters is now responsible for bringing his reserves players up to standard, mentally and physically, with the senior game plan and team culture to slip seamlessly into the senior line-up when needed.

"It'll be a big learning curve, but for me it's a great opportunity to develop my coaching. I'm really blessed to have another season with the Roosters," Waters said.
