Janet Anderson (snipped):


We already have Snape on the good side (in my opinion). Everything 
you could
say about Viktor regarding the Dark Arts, and a whole lot worse, can 
be said
(and undoubtedly has been said, to Dumbledore and others) about 
Snape. So
if we can trust Snape (and some of us can, while at the same time 
thinking
he needs the occasional swift kick), then we should be able to give a
seventeen-year-old boy the benefit of the doubt.


Snow:

I would like to believe that Krum will be on the side of good but 
Dumbledore's reaction in GOF leaves me a bit hesitant.

In the chapter, The Madness of Mr. Crouch, Harry has gone to tell 
Dumbledore that Crouch is in the forest talking strangely:
"Said he wants to warn you
said he's done something terrible
he 
mentioned his son
and Bertha Jorkins
and-and Voldemort
something 
about Voldemort getting stronger
"
"Indeed," said Dumbledore, and he quickened his pace
"
"He's not acting normally,"[
]I left him with Victor Krum."
 "You did?" said Dumbledore sharply, and he began to take longer 
strides still
" 

It appears, at least to me, that Dumbledore was not thrilled at the 
prospect of leaving Krum alone in the woods with Crouch.
