hm.. is the referee in football (other sports) not also a judge ? Was the player offside ? Don't see a difference myself.. its subjective (interfering with play rule).
The 6N last weekend was a case in point - Was Godman's challenge a yellow card ?
Why didn't Flannery go to bin at least ? Why did the French player who killed the ball 1M from his try line not get yellow when Healy was given Yellow for supposedly denying a try scoring opportunity ?

Technically no, the referee's are there to stop cheating and keep the peace, you are not going to get let off from fouls and off sides if you do it in a certain style (unless you play for Man U).

They make decisions during the game to ensure its played correctly, but they don't (or are not supposed to) decide the results.
