Chris Stacey (born 21 February 1966) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy and the Brisbane Bears in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Originally from Koroit, Stacey was called up only once by Fitzroy, for a game against the Sydney Swans at the SCG. [2]

Stacey joined Brisbane for their maiden season in 1987 but had to wait until midway through the year to break into the seniors. [2] When he eventually made his Bears debut, once more against the Swans, he starred with 16 disposals and four goals. [2] He however played only two more games for Brisbane. [2]

Back home in Victoria, Stacey played some good football with Dennington and was the leading goal-kicker in the Warrnambool District Football League for the 1996 and 1997 seasons.
