Fred & George are only 2 years ahead of Harry, right? So they will be 
7th years. We know Oliver Wood graduated at the end of Harry's 3rd 
year, and the Quiddith season was cancelled in Harry's 4th year due 
to the Triwizard Tournament taking up so much of people's energy at 
Hogwarts. But presumably Fred and George will be back for their final 
year of eligibility. Could they possibly be co-captains? I don't see 
why not.

Even if Harry doesn't have time to be team captain (what with getting 
ready for his OWLs and possibly saving the WW from more LV attacks), 
I hope he continues to play Quidditch in 5th year. He's a remarkable 
Seeker so I don't see why he wouldn't be Seeker again. (Yes Steve, I 
know you have Harry pegged as a new Beater but I just can't see it:-)
