Aussie:
1. If Snape (the Occlumence) knew Harry was on the Tower, he may 
think he (Snape) has already paid back the life debt to the Potters. 
Any ties Snape had to the Order of the Poenix died with Dumbledore. 
The only reason why Sanpe would still be against Voldy (if he ever 
truely was) would be for personal reasons not mentioned before in 
canon (but suggested widely here). If Snape dies, it would be from 
Lupin or Moody.

Aussie:
2. Malfoy turning good would be more satisfying than him dying. 
Lucius may die protecting his son though. (I don't think Snape can 
out-Occlumence Voldy)

Aussie:
3. JKR also wants people to KNOW Voldy is EVIL. The best Weasley 
victim to do that is (I don't like to say it) Ron. His death would 
draw others into a stronger fight (DA's that weren't in Tower fight; 
Charlie from Romainia; Krum, since Hermione is free again; 
Gryffidors revenging "Weasly-Is-Our-King"; even Percy would fight)

Aussie:
4. Hagrid is my favourite character. I'd like to see him fly into 
battle on Norbert's back. There are others I'd think would go before 
Hagrid though

Slughorn ... Grump ... Firenze (whose death may draw other Centaurs 
into the battle) ... Kretcher ... Susan Bones is the last of her 
clan- she may be a target, but I hope she survives
