Gordon poised to become top Dog

PETER Gordon's passage to the Western Bulldogs presidency is looking smooth, as a board election at Whitten Oval is now highly unlikely.

Board nominations close at 5pm today and, despite murmurs of interest, no official applications have been lodged.

Former player Paul Dimattina will not nominate, meaning any ascent by him to the club's board will be delayed.

If an unexpected challenger emerges in the final hours of the process today, Gordon will be forced into campaign mode.

The Dogs would also be forced to fund an election, which would cost it more than $50,000.

In a more low-key change, which will also be confirmed if all is quiet today, finance guru Gary Kent will become a full-blown board member, replace retiring vice president Ian Veale.

Gordon travelled to London with the Bulldogs for the exhibition match against Port Adelaide and has been working feverishly behind the scenes, looking at fundraising models as the club steps up efforts to wipe out a $10 million debt.

Dimattina has been been impressed by Gordon's energy and commitment in recent meetings.
