Channel 9 Footy Show Host Paul Vautin defends Comments

Paul Vautin Channel 9 Footy Show Greg Stacey
NRL Footy Show Host Paul Vautin continues to have to defend himself against misdirected comments regarding Caxton Hotel bouncer Greg Stacey, with Fatty saying the disabled man looked 'blind' drunk after footage of Mr Stacey being interviewed by Robbo was aired last Thursday.


An honest mistake, as many viewers and panel members did believe that Greg Stacey was drunk.

The family of the disabled bouncer are now doing their best to make a quick buck from the situation and have continued their position, looking to legal action against Paul Vautin - despite the fact that Fatty has lost his disabled brother this week to down syndrome.

Vautin confirmed he would never knowingly make these kind of comments against a disabled person, especially when he has lived with illness in his family for years.

Sadly, the Stacey family have disregarded the death of Fattys brother and will continue to hound Vautin until they get the verdict and money they desire.

A sad decision indeed considering that Vautin and his family have phoned the Stacey clan several times to offer their apology over the misunderstanding.

I agree man, i wrote a similar blog the other day. It's one thing to feel aggrieved over the comments that Vautin made, which were completely innocent and done without malice - but for the Stacey family to continue to play this thing out through the media is unforgiveable and really does appear to be an attempt to grab cash from a media personality by appealing to the typical public backlash. In the new context of Vautin's family matter, if the family still believe they have been the victim of some inappropriate comments, it would be best if they settled the matter out of the media spotlight, and through personal mediation with Vautin himself. As this matter drags on, the public reaction will (and has) turned against the family, and more in defence of Vautin.
