Ok, this explains where the mutual confusion stems from:
A sink block is a block that is a sample sink. Items go in, nothing
comes out.

This block calculates 8-bit integers and show it on console, not to any output port.

There is no output port.

Hence this is a sink block.

 

What you're describing is a decimator. Nothing special about that, just
use the decimator
block type, set the decimation to 9 and you're set.

Greetings,
Marcus
