Of primary importance in the A grade is Wastney v Ker, as a decisive result will mean that the winner will be Autumn Champion, while a draw will mean Nic Croad could catch up with both.
Here is Nic playing an extraordinary game against Russell Dive in round 5:

The B grade has now been won by Edgar Benitez. His draw against me means that nobody can catch him
Here is Edward Tanoi losing rather painfully to Andrew Stone from a won position (notes by Edward)

The C grade belongs to Ryan Winter. It was rather surprising to me that Ryan was playing in the C grade to start with, but his rating had suffered from a rather torrid time in Auckland in January.

The D grade has been won by Michael Sole, who is playing terrific chess at the moment. He could be joined for first place by Ross Jackson if he loses his catch-up game to Peter Stöveken.

The F grade is a bit of a pig's ear, because of all the non attendances. It's a bit of a headache trying to work out what to do with all the backlog of games.

And finally, the G grade showed excellent performances by a clutch of new-comers. It will be very interesting to see how they fare against the stronger members of the club in forthcoming tournaments. Anyway, congratulations to joint winners Thomas van der Hoorn and Vaibhav Sharma.
