Not only did she *say* it, there was quite an extended sequence with 
her and said friend Sean in that documentary. Sean was asked what he 
thought Ron was like. Interesting comment: he said he saw Ron as 
someone from the second eleven [reserve team] who really, really 
wants to be first eleven [first team] but is never quite going to 
make it.

Of course, this may have nothing to do with JKR's vision of Ron, but 
it's interesting that the guy he was partly based on sees Ron that 
way.

Anyone have a transcript of that documentary?
