Now Yblitzka:
I've never heard of the reserve team either after that point, and 
Harry mentions (maybe in a different book) that he has to play for 
Gryffindor (endangering life and limb... it may have been PoA), since 
they have no reserve seeker. Maybe firsties are allowed to try out, 
and can only be put on the reserve team, or maybe McGonagall bent the 
rules the year before too. Seems like she's getting desperate since 
Slytherin has been winning the cup each year, so maybe she opened 
tryouts or whatever to first years so they can practice before going 
on the house team.

Or it could be another FLINT, or maybe Ginny just wasn't thinking 
clearly.

Anyway, trust me, there is /no shame/ in buying another set of 
books. Cross referencing in the same one becomes so much easier when 
you have two copies, plus you can scribble in one set and keep the 
other nice and neat for when visitors read them.
