The All Blacks deny that their TriNations preparations have been compromised by a newspaper photograph showing line out tactics.
The All Blacks play the Wallabies in the first of their TriNations/Bledisloe Cup clashes of the year and during training Picture agency Getty Images took a shot of a piece of paper held by coach Graham Henry at Tuesday morning's training session in Melbourne.
The photo was then shown in both Melbourne daily newspapers and The Australian and showed planned line out moves for the All Blacks on attack.
New Zealand assistant coach Steve Hansen however says that the moves were Wallaby plays that had been outlined for their own defence.
"At the end of the day you guys and photographers come to training and there are a few unwritten rules and the photographer has breached the trust,"Hansen told AAP.
"There's no too much we can do about it.
"The good thing about it yesterday was a defensive training day so we won't have to change our tactics too much.
"There are a whole lot of things that are going to happen on Saturday night and I don't think one photo is going to make too much difference."
Wallabies assistant coach Jim Williams has dismissed the photo even though Australia are lloking to end a seven-match losing streak against the All Blacks.
"I wouldn't read too much into it myself and I wouldn't bother looking at it. It's just a picture of training," he said.
