There are catch up games still to go, but obviously they will not effect this year's 2015 Autumn Cup A Grade Champion.
Results
Nijman 0-1 Croad
Nyberg 0-1 Ker
Dive p-p Pomeroy
Here is the cross table before the catch up games begin:

It is very weird to see Russell Dive languishing down there at the foot of the table, but he does have a couple of games still to play.
One of the many things that makes Wellington Chess Club the best chess club in the world (to my knowledge) is the way the top players are friendly and approachable, and willing to share their chess expertise with us mere mortals. We are very lucky to have Russell, Anthony, Nic and Brian at the club (and Scott, when he is playing).
Many thanks to Nic for sharing his games with us here, with annotations. And also to Brian Nijman for contributing his draw against top seed Russell Dive.
The B grade is currently being led by Bill Forster, but he has played all his games, while Layla (now aged 14) is half a point behind with two games in hand, against the lowest rated players in the group. She beat Andrew Stone on Thursday.
Great news - Bill has by and large recovered from his illness and has updated the website with his incredible escape. Follow the link here: http://www.nzchessmag.com/wellingtonchessclub/

The C grade is looking good for Ross Jackson, he has the same number of points as Don Stracy, but a game in hand against tail-ender Andrew Brockway. Don has had a particularly good tournament, unbeaten and with wins against Philip Rossiter and Patrick Cunningham.

The D grade could be a five way tie!
If Troy Lamerton loses to new boy Yogesh Kulkarni in the catch up game, then all the players will have 2 points.
Sadly Mike Asplet missed a couple of games early on, and decided it wasn't worth staying in the competition.

And finally the E grade, where Colwyn Forlong-Ford has dominated, taking a half point bye in the first round and following it up with four wins out of four. Josh Wight is only half a point behind, but Colwyn must be favourite in this group. One round left to play here.
