G'Day Mate!

Removing just a few marrow leaves here and there shouldn't have too negative an impact on the vines. But, do remove the leaves with a sharp pair of secateurs flush against the leader. As the leaves have hollow stems you don't want to leave a 'stub' that could fill with water (from watering or rain) that could ferment and cause rot. That would not be good.
