Rugby union career

Marshall began his rugby union career with Southland and was then asked to join Christchurch by Canterbury coach Vance Stewart.

He has made 81 appearances for the All Blacks, with a record of 61 wins, 1 draw and just 19 defeats. Marshall is the highest capped scrum half in All Blacks history.

Until recently, Marshall played for Canterbury in the National Provincial Championship,[1] the Crusaders in the Super 12 competition, and the All Blacks. However, his New Zealand contract ran out after the 2005 Lions tour, and he signed to play the 2005-06 season for Leeds Tykes in the English Guinness Premiership. However, following the relegation of Leeds from the Premiership, Marshall left the club at the end of the season. On 25 April 2006 it was announced that Marshall had signed for the Welsh regional side The Ospreys on a two year contract beginning in September 2006. Before signing for Ospreys, Marshall indicated an interest in returning to New Zealand to once again be an All Black and play in the World Cup, even being prepared to play for Auckland.[1] The Canterbury Rugby Football Union (CRFU) is the official governing body for rugby union in a substantial part of the Canterbury region of New Zealand,and is affiliated to the New Zealand Rugby Football Union. ...
