The Chargers were a defunct Sydney-based NRL side active from 1988 to 1998, notable for a Carrara debut in 1996 and a big 1996 victory over the Crushers. The club ceased after ARL/SL conflicts. Heritage jerseys have been reissued by the Titans referencing the old Chargers motif and quickly sold out on launch. Their legacy remains a point of nostalgia in Queensland rugby league among early regional expansion narratives and the 1990s league realignment period, illustrating expansion narratives in the era.
