What the coaches said :

Thomas :
"We were very, very average early," Thomas said. "We were very reactive and they out-toughed us and they were much harder at the footy and everything else and that's my responsibility and we've got to prepare them mentally to attack the game and they didn't. We've got to take responsibility for that."

Melbourne play Collingwood this Monday and then enter the long break.
