Eddie Jones has kicked off the Six Nations mind games by admitting to spying on opponents in the past.
The England head coach revealed: “That Leeds bloke was just telling everyone what everyone does. Like everyone does that.
“I can guarantee (Wales coach) Warren Gatland sends someone when we have an open session here.
“I have been coaching for 20 years and it has always been going on. Fifteen years ago we used to send people out in costumes to watch training.

“I can remember sending a coach, who is in a very senior position now, in a costume to go and watch one team play.
“He was dressed up like a swagman, one of those hats with corks – and he got chased out of there.”
