Career
He also played in the Tasmanian Grade Cricket competition for Clarence District Cricket Club. Tame was an all rounder best known for his right-arm fast-medium bowling, who over a three-year career span took 16 first-class wickets at an average of 51.62. He would go on to represent Tasmania eight times at first class level, with his best bowling return of 5/74 coming in his second match, played against New South Wales at the Number.

He also played eight List A cricket matches for Tasmania, but never excelled in that format. Tame failed to recreate the form of that remarkable spell of bowling in Newcastle, and by the end of 1987 he had been dropped from the Tasmanian side.
