Iggy:

I agree that I'd like to see why Lavender and Parvati are in Gryffindor.  (I
wondered about Neville, until he stood up to the Trio... then I understood
the massive potential he has...)

As for the others, I have a few ideas... as cornball as some of them are...
*grin*

Lee Jordan - He belongs in Gryffindor for not only being brave enough to be
best friends with the Weasley twins, but for also frequently ignoring
McGonagall's repeated warnings when he's commentating on the Quidditch
matches.

Dean Thomas - For being best friends with a boy who can potentially do more
damage to himself and bystanders with a simple levitating spell than a box
of fireworks on a bonfire.

Seamus Finnigan - For having the guts to keep studying magic when he's a boy
who can potentially do more damage to himself and bystanders with a simple
levitating spell than a box of fireworks on a bonfire.

Angelina Johnson, Alicia  Spinnett and Katie Bell - For being Chasers on a
Quidditch team that includes three of the Weasley Boys, and Harry all on
their own side.  (Of course, that would probably qualify anyone who faces
their team for Gryffindor as well...)

Oliver Wood - Ummmm... still trying to figure that one out.  He seemed more
like a Hufflepuff to me... albeit more stressed out than I have ever seen
any Hufflepuff get....
