If, like me, you have more spare time to listen rather than read there are a number of podcasts that may be of interest to referees:
Play On Podcast
An Australian based podcast, hosted by referees Candace Barritt and Rob McKay. A good mix of discussion around the elite and community (albeit Australian) rugby refereeing.

2 locks and a Cox
While the primary focus of this podcast is Exeter Chiefs, there is still much discussion around the game at all levels, with Sara Cox co-hosting regularly bringing a referee’s and women’s rugby perspective.
