Glenn Newman, Danny Drake and Dale Marsters are back to lead our Maloney Drainage Colts in 2026, joined by Joe Kurukaanga, Mina Wharepouri and newcomer Cooper Heath.

After a gritty 2025 campaign that ended in a narrow semi-final loss to North Shore, the focus for 2026 is clear:

 Continue to develop players to step up to Premier and representative teams

 Play championship-winning rugby

 Enjoy the Cote culture and understand what it means to play for the jersey

The goal? To go one better and bring the championship back to Northcote.
