Rugby World Cup : Poms spy on Argentina

A former member of the English rugby team has been spotted taking covert photographs of the Argentinian squad in training in Dunedin.

Former England and British Lions tighthead prop Phil Vickery has been caught taking snaps of the Argentina side - and bragging about it on Twitter, saying "Here in dunedin watching argentina train."

Vickery who won the world cup in 2001 whilst playing for England has posted a link to the grainy photographs, in a bid to help the English side win the upcoming world cup.

Vickery posted a note on one of the photographs "Don't tell anyone".

The photographs show the Argentina side training in rainy conditions, today.

Vickery has been taunting sport shock-jock DJ Martin Devlin, on Twitter, saying "bring it on".
