one thing only - the snitch. I doubt Harry usually knows who did what

Me: I agree that having a Seeker as Captain seems like a bad idea. 
However, Cedric was both and seemed to do a pretty competent job, so 
I don't think it's outside the realm of possibility that Harry would 
get the spot. Then again, Ron is the "master strategist" who's been 
avidly following the sport for years. Hmmm....Co-captains, anyone?
