Canberra Raiders centre Joey Leilua is on the verge of finalising his miraculous comeback from a career-threatening spinal injury. And it couldn't come in a bigger game - against the ladder-leading Melbourne Storm in Melbourne on Sunday. Raiders coach Ricky Stuart has named Leilua (neck) in the centres for the clash that pits top against third just four weeks out from finals. It will be Leilua's first NRL game in 16 weeks after he had surgery on a bulging disc in his neck. His last game was against the Manly Sea Eagles at Brookvale Oval on April 28.
