Private Message to Professor Dolohov

[alt_cedric]

Professor,
While discussing the recent displays of colossal irresponsibility and poor judgement, Professor Siz let me know that you have acquired mostly complete notes of what occurred at these meetings. As captain of the house team, I need to decide how culpable Zach Smith and Hephaestus Bobolis were in Jason Samuels's injury. Would it be possible for me to look over the notes for the meeting immediately before our match? I would like to know what prior knowledge they had of his condition before I decide how severely to sanction them for their on pitch failure of judgement, reckless behaviour and endangerment of a fellow Quidditcher.

Thank you for your consideration.

I'm not entirely certain it would be appropriate to share the majority of the notes with you, Mr Diggory, but a quick glance over them indicates that all those present at the meeting -- including, yes, Mr Smith and Mr Bobolis -- were well aware that Mr Samuels had been the target of a hex, and believed they had reversed it at the time. Will that suffice to help you make your decisions?

We are still discussing the matter of discipline, and the extent to which we should apply it, but I do not think anyone would argue it is not your right as captain to handle discipline for on-pitch actions accordingly.
