Early life
Lam was born in Hamilton but moved to Wellington at an early age and then across to Canberra where he attended St Edmund's College. He made the Australian Secondary Schools’ side two years running in 2004 and 2005. He is a cousin of former All Black and Samoan international Pat Lam. Lam's first year in the Australian Schools team was at centre, before he was converted into a loose forward the following year and made the team again as a flanker.
Domestic career
Lam made his debut for Tasman in the 2008 Air New Zealand Cup competition, starting at number 7 against Bay of Plenty.
After getting seven starts for Tasman in 2008, Lam returned to the Waikato, to be part of the 2009 Chiefs Wider Training Squad. He also went on to make his first appearance for Waikato again starting in the number 7 position against Southland.
Lam continued his career with Waikato during the 2010 ITM Cup, mainly starting at openside flanker. At the end of 2010, Lam signed with the Wellington Super Rugby franchise the Hurricanes for 2011.
Lam ended up being a standout Hurricane in 2011, starting in every match at openside flanker in every match in his rookie year in Super Rugby. He went on and returned for another full season with Waikato in the 2011 ITM Cup.
Lam made the switch to Europe in 2014, joining then Greene King IPA Championship side Bristol. In December 2015, he signed a new contract for two more seasons with Bristol (until 2018).
