It actually is pretty black and white most of the time. It's a science, not an art.

I was 100% right. NRL GF averaged 2.64m, falling well short of last year's GF of 3m. It was also one of the worst rated finals in many a year. That's what you get when Canberra is in it.

It had a huge increase in streaming numbers though, to partially offset the TV ratings drop.

Across the regular season the Canberra  Raiders were the most streamed NRL team in 2019.

The grand final was also streamed 413,000 times.

Only the clueless ones. In fairness there was a QLD team in the playoffs, just got bungled out straight away.
