STEVE Johnson has been in incredible form for Greater Western Sydney this season but even he was surprised to be getting a hard tag during his bye week.

The man assigned to the job, none other than former St Kilda stopper and one-time serial pest Steven Baker.

Johnson and Baker added another chapter to their famous rivalry when they caught up for a drink on Friday night.

Baker posted a photo from the night saying, “After nearly 8 years it was round 2 last night!!.

Stevie J VS Steven Baker, both battled hard, but once again Stevie J got the chocolates. #legend #whatanight.

The pair famously squared off back in 2010 when they went toe-to-toe for four quarters as the Cats and Saints clashed in a grand final rematch.

Johnson and Baker wrestle during their 2010 clash.

Both players were booked from the clash, with Baker pleading guilty to three charges of striking Johnson and copping a nine-week suspension - ruling him out until the finals. For his part in the clash, Johnson was hit with a three-week ban.

Baker did return to play in both grand finals against Collingwood.

Both players are clearly enjoying each other’s company a lot more now that Baker has, for the most part, hung up his tagging boots.
