As the summer sailing season draws to a close, we remind everyone that the club is great to visit in winter as well - not just for ongoing sailing and swimming but also for cosy catch-ups in the restaurant and member’s bar.

On the field: there were 2 Friday night games this week. Richmond surprised Geelong to record a 4-goal victory. The Cats' loss snapped their 5-game win streak and the Tigers will be pleased to see Dusty Martin regain form and kick four goals. The improving Gold Coast Suns traveled to Perth where they crushed the injury-hit Eagles by a whopping 70 points. On Saturday, another surprise result saw visiting Fremantle beat the Sydney Swans by 17 points at the SCG. The Swans lost Callum Mills in the first few minutes of the game which did not help their chances. Last year's Grand Finalists slumped to 3-6 on the season and have already lost three times at their home ground this year.

Melbourne downed Hawthorn by nine goals and Port Adelaide made it six straight wins with a 70-point shellacking of North Melbourne in Launceston. Essendon traveled to the Gabba on Saturday night and led by 10 points at halftime. However, Brisbane completely dominated the second half to run out winners by seven goals. It was the Lions' sixth straight win and former Bomber Joe Daniher had a night out, kicking six against his old team. Carlton's poor form continued this week as they lost to the Western Bulldogs by 20 points at Marvel Stadium. The Blues could manage only one goal in the first half! A second-half rally which saw them twice take the lead late in the final quarter counted for nothing as the Bullies hit back during time-on to kick four unanswered goals.

In the first of the Sunday games, Adelaide handed out a football lesson to St Kilda at the Adelaide Oval. The Crows were on top right from the start and with quick ball movement through the center and straight kicking as well, they piled on the points. The Sainters never got close and lost this one comprehensively by 52 points - by far their worst defeat this season. In the late game, Collingwood had little trouble disposing of visiting GWS at the MCG, winning by 65 points. The towering American, Mason Cox, was a major contributor to the 'Pies win today, ensuring his team retains top spot on the ladder after 9 rounds.

The Grumpy Swimmer has edged to a 2-point lead at the top of our leaderboard. As there were several upsets, nobody managed to tip a perfect round this week. Congratulations to Andy Mulholland, SkipOz and Dazzling Don, all of whom managed 8 winners this week to lead the way. Well done.
