Yes basically COLA lite.
I honestly never ever believed it wasn't for the cost of living but to be able to keep players as they could earn a lot more in Melbourne, a retention allowance but the AFL had already abolished Brisbanes retention allowance so couldn't use that name so went with COLA. On the cost of living in Sydney it shows how hypocritical people are. When Eddie moved to Sydney n started work in Sydney he came out in favour of COLA but as soon as he got shown the door his mind changed instantly. Also on his tv show one question was "what is the most expensive city to live in?" Answer Sydney. Hypocrite!! I actually think he came to Sydney thinking he'd wiggle his way into the club in some way.
