I'd party with a wiz over a bard though

Even an afk bard singing hymn of restoration (under 55) or cantana (55+) with a lute equipped will do more for a group than a wizard.
As for what the OPs group needs ...
There are a lot of classes that could round that group out nicely.
-Rogue brings consistent high dps, corpse dragging, and pick lock for those few awesome cash spots like crypt/emperor in seb. Without pick lock, there are a few camps your premade can't really enjoy.
-Mage brings solid dps, malo, and CoH.
-Shaman ... this class is just a powerhouse. While some might consider it redundant for your group (and having shaman, cleric a druid in a group is a bit of a waste), this class brings the strongest slows to the table, malo, and frees up the enchanter to focus solely on pet dps and crowd control - monk can go hog wild with overpulling as your slower and cc'r aren't the same toon.
-Bard ... bards make every group better. The draw-back to bringing a bard to the table is that it doesn't really help the group kill faster. 3 out of your 6 toons would enjoy a huge jump to mana regen, and 6 out of 6 toons would benefit from the extra background healing, freeing up more druid mana for nuking and possibly allowing your cleric to go to sleep in most xp camps the game has to offer. Lull in a lot of camps allows the bard to pull more quickly/safely than the monk (especially when there are casters around). The big draw back here is bards don't add jack diddly for damage output. If your group didn't have a druid (ie had another higher damage toon like a rogue or mage) I'd recommend bard for sure.
-Monk - always solid dps - always a good stand-in tank - always a great puller. A monk will fit into literally any group that covers the basics of healer and cc/slower. You could have a group of 4 monks, a cleric and a chanter/shaman that would own most content.
For the 6th man to YOUR group, I'd recommend rogue. Barring that, mage will probably add more to your group than most other options.
