Wallabies captain Stephen Moore stepped back in time on Thursday, ahead of the Barbarians’ clash with Argentina on Sunday (AEDT).

The match commemorates the 125th anniversary of the Barbarians club and Moore became a part of the celebration, in a vintage style photoshoot.

With a colonial-era moustache added to his look, Moore posed in a picture that emulated a portrait of club founder William Percy Carpmael.

Victor Matfield, Springbok and Barbarians captain for the historic match, was another in an old-time shot, along with All Blacks winger Nehe Milner-Skudder.

The Barbarians take on Argentina on Sunday morning (AEDT), with the match to be televised on Fox Sports One Channel 501 at 9:30am AEDT.
