I've checked the archives and nobody has suggested this as far as I 
know, but forgive me if someone already has. 

How about Bill Weasley being the new DADA teacher? We know he works 
as a curse-breaker for Gringotts and I think that means he must be a 
very capable wizard. As I see it, curse breaking and defense against 
the dark arts are related.

IIRC, according to someone on this list JKR said that the new DADA 
teacher would be a surprise to us. That's why I suppose it's not 
going to be a character introduced in OoTP, but someone we already 
know, though we do not expect to see him/her in this position. 
Moreover, Dumbledore will make sure the new professor is somebody 
trustworthy, whom he could actually count on and who also really 
cares about Harry and is willing to help him out (especially after 
everything that happened in GoF with Fake!Moody and Voldemort getting 
more powerful). So, who might the right man for the job be other than 
a Weasley?

At first, I had thought of Arabella Figg, but that would be somewhat 
obvious, IMO. Bill sounds like a good choice. What do you think?

Gina, who would also like to see Charlie teaching CoMC, if Hagrid 
died.
