At first glance the clover leaf cut out in the bottom bracket looks pretty definitive.
But seriously I'm no expert.

The decal set on your bike are the same as a cheap copy available in the 80's. Many fake Colnago's had this decal set.
The bottom bracket cutout could be faked but it does look very even and factory made. It is a bit different to the cutouts I am used to seeing.
Greg Softly runs 'Cyclemondo' which produces great reproduction decal sets. If you access his website have a look at the 'links' to access photo's of his extensive bike collection. He has many Colnago's.
Is it real??? I'd like to see a few more photos. I would like to see if the lugs had any 'ace of clubs' cutouts. I would expect to see a club cutout on the bottom lug on the headset.

Wonder if they were ever sold here? I'm guessing it might have been a private import to Australia originally. Most of their few references are more central European web pages.
Hit me up via the BNA dm; I'll get an alert. If y'know, you know.

"Could be a Cornelo. Henk coccus from St. Willibrord in Belgium, the brand has created. His son Corne was an amateur rider and Henk himself started in the 70s to import frame from Italy, from Colnago. This explains the sleeves to be Colnago almost, but not quite. The brand was named after the son Cornelo, the "lo" to express an Italian flair.

I have swung to the Cornelo camp. I found this head tube decal that shows the club used by Cornelo.
My only problem now is that I can't find an image showing the same clover leaf 'club' cutout lugs on a Cornelo. I have only been able to find images of later model bikes with a different lug cutout. I wouldn't be surprised if Colnago stopped Cornelo using the 'club' cutouts on their lugs because they were too close to the Colnago 'club' lugs.
This is the typical Cornelo lug cutout I found on a few Cornelo bikes. I guess that this cutout is a later version.
Here is the bike, a Cornelo 'Champion du Monde':
Interestingly, this bike has a replacement Colnago front fork.
