The club confirmed on Tuesday that Crocker would stay on as Scott's senior assistant coach for the next two years.
Until he was appointed caretaker coach mid-season, Crocker had spent four-and-half years in charge of North's backline.
A return to that role will be determined by those who replace the assistants dismissed last week: Darren Bewick (forwards), Anthony Rock (midfield), Danny Daly (opposition) and Dave Newett (development).
"It's yet to be confirmed," Crocker said. "It's probably going to depend on the structure of the whole team and who comes in. We'll work that out in due course."
Crocker said he was always more likely than not to accept the Roos' offer, but felt he needed time to clear his head after 10 games in the senior job.
Beating a shortlist that included Crocker and Damien Hardwick, Scott was appointed in the lead-up to round 21 but was keen for Crocker to see out the season in charge.
"I pretty quickly came to the conclusion that it's all a pretty good fit and I was happy to stay on and support Brad," Crocker said.
He said he had made no demands on his position and that being the senior assistant coach was a reflection of his age and experience more than anything else.
"It was more wherever I fit in with Brad and his structure. We'd spoken about that," he said. "No matter who Brad brings in, we'll all be on a level playing field.
"From my experience perspective, I've got a lot to offer Brad especially with the IP (intellectual property) that I've got within this place.
"We've obviously got a young group. We've seen them come on but there's still a lot of work to be done. With Brad coming in and getting a three-year contract, we need to get our hands dirty, spend some time with the list and really develop them individually and collectively."
Chief of football Donald McDonald said he and Scott had already started speaking with candidates that might complement the football department's new focus.
"Brad's really keen to put together a really good quality team that will help him continue the development work that's been going on for the last three years," McDonald said.
"We just want to get a couple of assistant coaches with a particular skill set so we'll see how we go.
"We're just rapt that Crock could jump on board, especially with the job he's done with us as an assistant and a senior coach.
"I reckon it's a good show of faith in where we're heading."
McDonald added that Crocker's recommitment meant he would be included in list management discussions in the coming weeks.
