Playing career
While attending Farrer Memorial Agricultural High School, Learoyd-Lahrs played for the Australian Schoolboys team in 2002 and 2003. Learoyd-Lahrs' first 3 seasons with Canberra were disrupted by injuries, but in 2009 he discovered his best form and began a series of impressive displays that led to his selection on the bench for NSW in Game 3 of the State of Origin series after being the 18th man for Game 2.
Despite playing in the second row Learoyd-Lahrs also covered the front row. Luke Bailey once commented that "Learoyd-Lahrs is about 600 kilos". He typically plays an "enforcer" type role similar to the role played by Anthony Watmough and Neville Costigan.
Learoyd-Lahrs is eligible to play for the Indigenous DreamTime team.
He represented Australia in the 2010 Four Nations tournament.
Learoyd-Lahrs signed on with the Melbourne Storm for the 2015 season. Following the season, he announced his retirement due to ongoing injury.
