"The whole idea was as soon as you finish your run, you were immediately to go back and line up for a shot at goal.
If you execute your skills you were awarded a score, if you missed any more than two, you and the rest of the team were made to do extra work," Schwerdt said.
Designed to test the player's skills under extreme mental and physical pressure, Schwerdt said the session aimed to replicate the disappointment and despair of wasted scoring opportunities on the playing field.
"The concept is they have to do some running when their teammates fail to execute skills, keeping everyone on the team accountable for their actions," he said.
"It is also to help with the mental pressure of game day, and the consequences that can occur when you let down the team."
The final Gold Coaster in front of the big sticks, it was left to rookie goal sneak Andrew Boston to boot the "winning" goal for his team mates.
Just 12 months on after becoming the first player in history to register a perfect score in the goal kicking test at the AFL Draft Combine, the Broadbeach product once again stepped up to the plate.
With ice running through his veins, Boston went back and delivered an arrow straight drop punt from 40m out, much to the delight of Gary Ablett.
Speaking to SUNS TV after the punishing conditioning challenge, Team Respect captain Tom Lynch said the goal-kicking challenge had helped build further team chemistry amongst the travelling party.
"If we booted any less than nine we just copped the 400m run and moved on quickly, changing out focus immediately on to the next ten kicks," Lynch said.
"If one bloke misses it then so be it. We are a team.”
