Momentum is the thing every coach talks about and nobody can hold in their hands. Xavia can. Working from predictive score value, it maps the swing of a match minute by minute: who is building, who is holding on, and where the game is most likely to turn.
For the 2026 NRL grand final, Xavia produced the curve above before kick-off. Above the line is the Roosters, below it is the Knights, and every marked moment is a try or a no-try call landing on the shape of the contest.
Measurem chief executive James Hughes set the call out publicly before the match, in The Australian Financial Review and on News24.
- Modelled
- Roosters 22 – Knights 18
- Final
- Roosters 19 – Knights 18
The right winner, and three points off the full-time score.
Michael Maguire first used the technology as head coach of the NSW Blues. In game one of the 2024 State of Origin series, with NSW down to twelve men inside the opening ten minutes, the swing he needed to read was the one happening in front of him.
“There was a real period throughout that game that our boys were very dominant with 12 men, so we looked at that and how we played, and utilised that information in the next couple of games.”
Millions of data points. Answers in seconds.
What used to take an analyst days now takes a question. Xavia reads across seasons of elite competition, consolidates it, and returns an answer while the thought is still fresh. Not a wall of numbers to interpret, but the answer itself.
Ask Xavia anything, anywhere, anytime. On the training paddock, in the review room, or in the box with the clock running.
Congratulations to the Sydney Roosters
