James Ryan Marshall (born 7 December 1988) is a New Zealand rugby union player. He plays in the first five-eighth, fullback and occasionally second five-eighth positions for the Wellington-based Super Rugby team the Hurricanes, and captains the Taranaki ITM Cup side.

Marshall was born in Auckland but moved to Nelson as a child, playing his junior rugby for Stoke and Nelson. He was educated at Nelson College from 2002 to 2006 and played in the school's 1st XV in his final two years there. Marshall also came to the attention of national selectors. However, he failed to make the New Zealand Under 17's and Under 19s. It was the same with the New Zealand Under 20s, losing out to Hawke's Bay five-eighth Daniel Kirkpatrick and Waikato's Trent Renata. He is the older brother of Crusader Tom Marshall.

Marshall started his career with Tasman after he made his debut for the Makos in the 2008 Air New Zealand Cup competition, coming on as a replacement against Bay of Plenty. In 2009 he suffered an injury in the first match which kept him out for most of the season, but went on and made his first full game against Taranaki. During the 2010 ITM Cup he made an immediate impact with his decisive running and ability to spot a gap. His strong performances saw him take over Fly-half, mainly starting in the number 10 position throughout the season.
