Lama Tasi (born 3 May 1990) is a New Zealand professional rugby league footballer currently playing for the Sydney Roosters in the National Rugby League.

Born in Auckland, Tasi first played rugby league for the Goodna Eagles club in Ipswich, Queensland. He played in the National Youth Competition for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles in 2009 and 2010, making the team of the year in 2010 and representing the Junior Kiwis [1]. He then signed with the Sydney Roosters for the 2011 season.[2]

Tasi made his debut in 2011 in the Roosters round 8 match against the Gold Coast Titans. Coming off the bench, Tasi made his presence felt by putting a big hit on the Titans, NSW and Australian representative forward Greg Bird. Tasi played 9 more games for the Roosters in his debut season, starting twice.

In December 2011, Tasi pledged his allegiance to the Queensland State of Origin and Australian national sides and was named in Queensland's 14 man emerging squad for 2012.[3]
