Playmaker Te Maire Martin has been re-signed by the One New Zealand Warriors for the 2026 NRL season.

Off-contract at the end of the 2025, the 29-year-old will extend his stay at the club to four seasons after arriving in 2023.

He started 2025 with the New South Wales Cup side but has been used as a bench utility at NRL level for most of the season before starting in the halves against the Dolphins and the Bulldogs in the last two rounds.

“We’re really pleased to be able to keep Te Maire with us for 2026,” said One New Zealand Warriors general manager recruitment, pathways and development Andrew McFadden.

“He’s tremendous value for us on the field while also providing great assistance for our younger halves coming through our pathways.”

Of Martin’s 13 first-grade appearances this season, 11 have been on the interchange as he has lifted his career tally to 106 games.

“Te Maire has given us so many options this season with his ability to fill so many positions,” said One New Zealand Warriors head coach Andrew Webster.








“At one time or another he has been used in most positions when we’ve lost players through injury.

“Above all he brings a fantastic club-first attitude and truly epitomises our next man up mentality.”

After starting his NRL career with Penrith in 2016, Martin had stints with North Queensland and Brisbane before joining the One New Zealand Warriors.
