Maybe watch the channel 9 4.30 report but have been watching PSN news all day and have not heard anything about it..
Congratulations on a wonderful career Licca.
From personal experience I can say you're a wonderful bloke, your contribution to the club has been simply enormous and I have a great deal of respect for the way you conduct yourself on and off the field. The work you do for TAC patients is fantastic and I know what a difference it makes to those guys.
As a player, your leadership has been immensely valuable, and on a personal note your 40-possession game in the final at AAMI stadium was one of the most inspiring performances I've seen in the sporting arena.
Hopefully the club can offer you a position, either as VFL captain or in coaching/mentoring, that will maintain your connection to the Magpies for years to come and allow us to continue to benefit from your experience and professionalism.
Well done Licca.
+1.
champion player for a while there

I've listened to as many news breaks on SEN as possible, haven't heard a thing about Licuria yet... seems odd.
Are you sure this is correct???
Anyways, he has definately run his race..... I don't think he could go on next year!!
Well done Licca, Your 40 possession game against Port in the 2002 qualifying final was one of the best I've seen!!!

Does that mean another team can pick him up or what or is he retiiring??
Yes and no a team could talk him out of retirement ala Mal Michael brissie/Essendon saga. I really don't see Licca trying to play AFL anywhere else, loves the club and I dare say he knows that he can't get a game in our midfield he would be struggling in most midfields
They probably meant Clemo and said Lica.
SEN shouldn't count as a "source" for anything.
While it seems true the fact is this is all premature. Mate works for SEN and can confirm that the rumour is BS........... ............For now

This is as close as I've seen, article on the Australian newspaper website:
"As well, the likely retirement of Paul Lucuria -- like Clement, a dual Copeland Trophy winner -- should give the Magpies salary cap relief next year of up to $750,000.
Licuria was overlooked for Collingwood's finals campaign this month. "

It is inevitable he will retire. The heart and soul of our football club in 02 and 03 when we made those grand finals. He epitomised everything good about the Collingwood football club and his example and leadership around the club will be sorely missed.
He is the only one apparently who goes close to rivalling Buckley in terms of training, preparation, dedication etc.

If it is true, then i wish Paul all the luck in whatever he decides to do.
I'll never forget how good he was in that 02 QF, what an excellent game.
It's a shame the game has passed him by, but he was sensational in the years we made the GF.
Thanks for what you have given the Collingwood football club Paul.
