I haven't seen any reference to this in the recent posts, however, 
there have been a lot, so I apologize if I missed it. I was curious 
as to what other people thought about Neville's comment about his 
wand. 

Not having the book on me, I'm not sure of the page number but 
towards the end, after Neville's wand gets snapped, he makes the 
comment that it's not his wand, it was his fathers. 

Does anybody else think that perhaps this could have something to do 
with Neville's poor wand skills? It has been noted before that the 
wand chooses the wizard and you'll never get results as good with 
another wizard's wand. Neville doesn't seem to be a stellar wizard to 
begin with (although I'm very fond of him). Maybe the wand is the 
reason why.


Secondly, I was wondering if anybody thinks now that Neville may end 
up haivng something to do with saving Harry in the end of all this. 
Especially since we now know that Neville could have been the one 
Voldemort went after. 

I can't help but think that Neville will play much more into this in 
book 6 and 7. He seems to be becomming a much more important 
character (yay!)
