Height

edit

Owen's height is a point of argument and I have yet to find a strong point of agreement:

  • 5' 4" Gwyn Nicholls and the First Golden Era of Welsh Rugby
  • 5' 4" Fields of Praise: The Official History of The Welsh Rugby Union
  • 5' 2" A Century of Welsh Rugby Players
  • 5' 3" Reliving victory over the All Blacks 1905-style BBC press release
  • 4' 11" The Welsh Academy Encyclopaedia of Wales

I have chosen 5' 4" as it is referenced twice and appears more sensible, though Parry-Jones may have referenced Smith's 'Fields of Praise' thus the agreement.
