The nose gel shower dispenser is the most hilariously disgusting mens gift we’ve seen in a while. Press the nostril of this oversized nose, and green gel will spurt out into his hand!

If you’re looking for crazy Christmas gift ideas, this is definitely one that will be talked about for days to come. The nose gel shower dispenser, though it’s terribly gross with its green gel, can have other shower gels used in it - which colour is the worst in your opinion?

This year’s Geelong premiership merchandise is made even more remarkable, knowing it’s the third victory in just five years. Exceeding all expectations for this year’s AFL season, the Cats put on a remarkable display and showed off their fine talents, finishing up the season with a breathtaking victory against Collingwood.

If you haven’t already headed over there, why not check out some of the newest Geelong premiership merchandise available - it’s really stunning!

If you’re looking for a top-quality premiership gift, the Geelong 2011 premiership mirror makes a stunning display of the winning title, team members names and positions, final scores of the game, and the Cats logo.

If you’re looking for an office gift for the guy who would much rather be at home on a Saturday watching his beloved team, there are a myriad of options available.

If he’s wanting something to decorate his office cubicle and rub into his co-workers that he’s on top, the 2011 premiership wall pennant is a must have. Great for decorating the cubicle wall, filing cabinet, or side of the computer, he’s bound to find a place to proudly display his colours.

Couple that with a Geelong 2011 premiership mouse pad, and he’ll have the entire set! Give him the ability to gaze at his beloved team while he does the mundane office work, and you never know, he might just be eager to get up and go to work in the morning!

…however, if he’s still not too keen, he may need a cup of coffee to get him going in the morning. And what better way to start the day than with a Geelong premiership coffee mug? With the team picture, final score, and the Cats logo, this premiership coffee mug is a great stand-alone gift for the Geelong fan.

When our poor hard-working office guy finally does get to go home for the weekend, help him relax with the Geelong premiership can cooler or the Geelong premiership bar runner. His mates will certainly know where his alliegances lie (likelihood is, they already do, but this will solidify it in their minds and either make friends or…well, if they support Collingwood…we might not go there).

And when he’s out and about, he’s going to need the Geelong premiership keyring and the 2011 premiership lapel pin. There’s just no questioning it. If he doesn’t want to use them for their traditional uses, he can use them to decorate his man bag, his dashboard, or again, the side of his computer.

Who was this man, and what led the Cats to rise above the common expectations laid on them during the first part of the season?

Chris Scott, first year AFL coach, led the Cats to a premiership win that nobody expected them to achieve. He was the 13^th man to accomplish this feat so soon in his career. No small feat, this was the first time since 1988 for a coach to make a premiership win in his first coaching season. Premierships were not new to Scott, however, as he’d participated as a player two times previously with the Lions in 2001/02.

As the fans eagerly await the Geelong premiership merchandise to flood the shops, Scott, while acknowledging the questions raised over his team for the coming year, has set his sights on a back-to-back premiership to finish off the 2012 season.

It would seem that coach Scott’s great strength lay in relationships and building up his team, letting each of them know where they stood, and helping them reach their full potential as players and as a team. Communication has been a key factor in his success. He handles the media well, he handles all the issues of the club well, and he’s just generally a good all-round sort of guy.

At the beginning of the season, Scott had lost Gary Ablett to the Gold Coast Suns, and a number of his players had just turned 30, or neared that mark. The season was met with a lot of scepticism from those outside the club, yet Scott rose above that.

Scott was the youngest coach since 1979 to win a grand final. The start to his coaching career was brilliant, winning the first 13 matches of the 2011 season. These 13 wins in one row, finished by a defeat from Esssendon of 4 points, made Scott’s season start the best start a coach has had in 80 years.

During Scott’s playing years, he and his twin brother, Brad, became known as the Kray Brothers, due to their playing style. Known for his force and strength, Scott used his muscle to become one of the AFL’s toughest defensive players. Leading on from his playing strengths, Scott went on to become a remarkable coach whose coaching years are only beginning.

So while stores stock Geelong 2011 premiership merchandise and while Geelong fans get caught in the hubbub and excitement of the premiership win, it pays to take a look at the great names behind the victory. And Chris Scott is certainly one of those great names.

Geelong is one of the oldest football clubs not only in Australia, but in the world. Founded in 1859, it is the third oldest in Australia, being preceded only by the Melbourne Football Club and the Castlemaine Football club. During this time, Geelong has cleaned up nine premierships, the first one being part of the VFL in 1925. Their most recent 2011 premiership was the third premiership to win in five years.

An article about Geelong would not be complete without mention of some of the team’s “greats”, one of them being Gary Ablett. Having won multiple awards, including the Bronlow Medal and the Leigh Matthews Trophy. He has also been a two-time premiership player and was inducted into the AFL Hall of Fame in 2009. It was with much controversy and disappointment that Ablett signed a contract in 2010 with the Gold Coast Suns, but he will live on in Geelong Cats fame.

Everybody knows about the Bronlow medal, but have you ever stopped to consider its origins? Named in honour of Charles Bronlow, a VFL administrator and also a player on the Geelong Football Club, the Bronlow Medal came about the season following his death. Fittingly, it went to a player on the Geelong football team, and, as is the case today, was awarded to the best and fairest player.

How did this team become known as the Cats? It wasn’t just a nice little name for a football team – there was significance to the name, that began as a nickname. For the record, other nicknames included the “Pivotonians” (due to the city of Geelong being a pivotal point) and the “Seagulls” (referring to the proximity of their location to the bay). Why the switch to the Cats? In 1923 they’d had a run of losses, and a black cat wandered onto the Collingwood side of the field during a match which Geelong went on to win. It was decided that the cat brought good luck to Geelong, and ever after the Geelong Football Club has been known as the Cats.

With odds against them with aging players and a new coach at the beginning of 2011, Geelong did not look set to go places that season. The only team to beat Collingwood, the reigning premiers, the Cats managed to dig their claws in and make a remarkable premiership victory at the 2011 Grand Final. It was a stunning finish to the end of a season.

So while out celebrating the Cats victory and adding to your collection of Geelong premiership merchandise, consider the history behind this great team. Go dig out the history books and discover the names and matches that made this team great. Curl up with the AFL history book and a hot drink in your new favourite coffee mug from the selection of Geelong 2011 premiership merchandise to celebrate your team.

To celebrate, we’ve already got some brand new Geelong premiership merchandise loaded and on our website. Cats fans will love this range of Geelong 2011 premiership merchandise, ranging from a stunning Geelong premiership trophy, to 2011 premiership mugs, to Geelong premiership steins, to the ever-necessary Geelong 2011 premiership bumper sticker (to add to the collection of the last three premiership wins!).

So, go watch the re-runs, chill, and enjoy the victory with your mates….and go pat a cat to congratulate them

Stress-free shopping, particularly at Christmas when the malls are packed, is a high priority, so we’d like to offer some tips that will help shoppers have ideas before they enter the shops so they can quickly and easily find the perfect gift for him.

Before looking at the 3 great gift ideas for men, one must consider what his interests are. What does he love doing? Where does he like spending his time? What sort of a job does he have? What is he avid about? The answers to these questions will help you choose the best category below to consider when choosing presents for the one you love.

1. Outdoor Gift Ideas for Men

If your man is an outdoorsman, there’s no point buying him office accessories (though we’ll talk more about desk gadgets later!). Consider his interests – camping, being “Mr. Fix-It”, remodelling old cars, hiking, bike riding, horseback riding, gardening, building, adventure sports (including rock climbing, hang gliding, water skiing, or snow boarding). Does he need new equipment for any of these hobbies? Would he want some rustic decorations to hang in his workshop, a new beer stein for drinks while he works, home décor reminding him of his favourite activities, or gift cards to do any of these events? Put your thinking cap on and consider what might float his boat (quite literally!).

2. Office Gift Ideas for Men

Some men just are not into the outdoors and love crunching numbers and shuffling papers. Desk accessories and stationary thrill them to no end – they get excited just stepping foot in an office supply store. Well, perhaps that’s a slight exaggeration, but an office guy does like a nice desk set with his name engraved on it. Mugs with names on them, a nice engraved pen, a clock and pen holder – these all make nice executive gifts. Then there are the quirky gadgets like Plug Mugs (needing the owner’s plug in order to be able to use the mug – prevents office theft), Rubiks Cube mugs, and flying monkeys to ward off office boredom. And don’t forget the whole set of USB gadgets that can be operated through the computer – his office will never be a boring place again!

 3. Sports Gift Ideas for Men

Your man may not enjoy hiking, but most men are into some form of sport – whether it be playing it or watching it in front of the television. New sports equipment, a membership with the local sports team, sports merchandise of his favourite team, and tickets to the next football match all make great gifts for the sports addict. Make a memorable day and plan a family outing to his favourite sporting event. Or purchase a tour of the local sports stadium and throw in some of his favourite merchandise with it.

These are basic ideas, but the goal is not to give a “one-size-fits-all” sort of answer. Because, in reality – one size does not fit all! But with these broad categories the aim is to get your mind whirring with the limitless possibilities of what to give your man for his birthday, Fathers Day, or Christmas.

There will be celebratory parties all over Australia on the night of the Grand Final. What’s an AFL party without AFL merchandise to go with it? Everyone has to show off their true colours, whether it be with an AFL bar runner to add to the atmosphere of the party, an AFL stein, an AFL coffee mug, or some other piece of AFL merchandise.

You’d better stock up - Grand Final is just around the corner, and you wouldn’t want to be caught out without any AFL merchandise to show where your true loyalties lie. Don’t forget, that with every purchase of AFL merchandise for your team, they are supported - so you’re doing a massive favour to your team every time you purchase!

If you’re concerned that Collingwood won’t make another back-to-back, show them your support with purchasing some of last year’s Collingwood premiership merchandise. And then rejoice with them if they’ve actually pulled it off a second time by purchasing some back-to-back Collingwood premiership merchandise!
