Dragons RFC started their Challenge Cup campaign with a hard-fought 29-14 win against Perpignan at Rodney Parade.
Filo Tiatia's side, semi-finalists in 2025-26, ran in four tries in Newport to edge a attritional opener.
Perpignan led 7-5 after a disjointed first half by responding to Jared Rosser's opener with a try from Jules Coulon.
Dragons backs Aneurin Owen and Anzelo Tuitavuki scored either side of a powerful effort by Posolo Tuilagi to secure victory against their French opponents, with Fetuli Paea adding a flourish in the closing stages.
