Source: www.warriors.co.nzAn excited Jacob Lillyman was today cleared to make his long-awaited return to the NRL in the Warriors' ninth-round clash against Brisbane at Mount Smart Stadium on Saturday night (7.30 kick-off).
The 28-year-old has been sidelined since tearing his right bicep off the tendon at the elbow only 10 minutes into the Vodafone Warriors' first preseason trial against Gold Coast at North Harbour Stadium on February 4.
The Queensland State of Origin front rower has trained fully with the Vodafone Warriors this week but needed a clearance before his playing return could be confirmed.
Lillyman was examined this afternoon and returned to the club later beaming enthusiastically as he told head coach Brian McClennan he was ready to resume playing.
It means the 124-game NRL veteran is now set to make his first NRL appearance of the year as scheduled exactly three months after surgery. It comes as the Vodafone Warriors prepare to face one of the hottest teams of the season, Brisbane running second in the competition after a run of six straight wins.
Lillyman wasn't named in the team yesterday as he awaited a clearance. Instead McClennan went for a five-man bench of Lewis Brown, Ukuma Ta'ai, Sione Lousi, Pita Godinet and Krisnan Inu.
Lillyman's availability coincides with the loss of fellow front row veteran Sam Rapira, out short-term with an ankle sprain he picked up in the Anzac Day loss to Melbourne.
The Vodafone Warriors' final line-up to face the Broncos will be confirmed an hour before kick-off on Saturday night.

Source: www.warriors.co.nzWarriors prop Jacob Lillyman will have surgery on his damaged right bicep tomorrow.
The 124-game NRL veteran lasted only 10 minutes of last Saturday's trial against Gold Coast before reeling out of a tackle holding his right arm.
Team doctor John Mayhew told www.warriors.co.nz today that Lillyman was scheduled to have an operation tomorrow to reattach the bicep tendon to the bone at the elbow.
Vodafone Warriors head coach Brian McClennan said everyone felt for the Queenslander.
"It's disappointing for him and for all of us but, while Jake might be having a low right now, you only have to look back to last year when he played in the grand final and the State of Origin," he said.
"He had plenty of joy there. He's a good character is Bull. He's philosophical about this and understands the game and knows this is just the nature of it. You have your lows, you have your highs."
Mayhew confirmed Lillyman would be out for three months recovering from his injury and subsequent surgery.
