Question, did GC Chargers ever have a away kit?
These were the days when very few teams had more than one jersey and the world kept turning. I recall Western Suburbs had their black kit and their white kit, Roosters had two, Manly had two, Warriors had two, Parra had two, Penrith had two, and likewise Illawarra and Canberra. But they were all pretty much purely in the event of a clash, not a home or away scenario as there is today (let alone all the other special jerseys per year). I recall Adelaide, in their one season in the NRL had a plain yellow jersey for the last round where they played Newcastle in Newcastle.

Honestly, there's more names there than I expected when I started typing it, but it just seemed like a rare thing, looking back at it from the distance of nearly 30 years.

Roosters, Parra, Auckland, and Wests I seem to recall used their alternate jerseys a bit more commonly than everyone else, but I might be wrong there.

* Edit * I also, now, recall Canberra, Brisbane, Melbourne, Western Reds, and South Queensland also having a 2nd kit too.

So, coming at it from the other angle, it appears that back in those days, the only teams that DIDN'T have a 2nd (clash) jersey were Newcastle, Chargers, St.George, Norths, Balmain, Canterbury, North Queensland, Cronulla, and Souths.
