But they bounced back by beating Italy to nil in Rome the following week.
Wales meanwhile got their title defence off to the worst possible start as they were hammered 29-7 in Ireland.
But they bounced back with a crucial 20-17 win over Scotland in Cardiff the following week.
However, the Dragons’ record at Twickenham leaves a lot to be desired as they haven’t won there since their famous 28-26 Rugby World Cup triumph in 2015.

Team news
Manu Tuilagi and Courtney Lawes are back in the England squad for this Twickenham grudge match.
Eddie Jones, and his opposite number, are expected to name their teams on Thursday for the Saturday encounter.
According to the Times, Louis Rees-Zammit has been dropped by Wales, 12 months after scoring a try against England in Cardiff.
A loss of form and confidence appears to have ousted the winger, 21, from Wayne Pivac’s squad and he will be available to play for Gloucester.
Wales will also have Taulupe Faletau to return in the back row, giving Pivac more options with the experienced No8 often saving his best performances for when the Welsh face the Red Rose.
