I would have thought the fact they didn't do the same for Essendon players would lead to the exact opposite conclusion you've just drawn, personally
I would have thought you would have read the article and understood what it meant. But to help you out, this is the key part in the article:
"Part of the problem in this whole wrenching drama that has linked Australia's two most popular football codes for 18 months is that ASADA's show-cause notices are merely an allegation – that is, the anti-doping body is only required to state it believes a doping violation took place."
*essendon players refused the offer because *they, like *their supporters it would seem are highly delusional and think that *they did not take any banned substances. Not sure what *they thought *they were taking but because ASADA didn't provide the evidence *they decided *they hadn't taken anything that was banned so *they refused the offer.
The article indicates that the Cronulla players also thought they hadn't taken anything banned but when confronted with the evidence, they realised just how good the offer was.
Now for *essendon the 6 months offer is off the table, which means that barring the most exceptional of miracles occurring *your *boys are in deep s@@@. (Apologies for the @@@ but I have to reserve * for *essendon, *jimmy. *etc and my * button seems to be struggling a bit with the workload, though I see now that it sprung comfortably back into action when I went to type *essendon.)
