 ~ Hitomi, who'd be ecstatic for Harry if he became Quidditch Captain

Jack and Andrew could not have been 5th years, they would be living 
in Harry's dorm.  My guess is that they are younger, probably 4th 
years.  If they were older, chances are they would have 
been "reserve" on the team already.

I am wondering whether Ron will remain Keeper, he may want to be a 
chaser as well.  He always had to keep when his brothers practiced, 
but that doesn't mean he wouldn't choose something else given the 
opportunity.

As far as the Captain job, I would like to see Harry do it too, but I 
think he will have bigger fish to fry and the job will go to Ron.  I 
still think Harry is going to be running a school sanctioned DA or 
even taking over the pre-OWL DADA job. (I know that seems a little 
crazy but I would love to see the dynamic of Snape having to put up 
with Harry as not only a student, but a "peer".)

Sue, who *really* hopes the March 4th chat brings us a release date 
for #6 (I can dream, can't I?)
