Newport have been drawn away to Midlands Two East side Mansfield in the third round of the EDF Energy Intermediate Cup.

The Fishes, who beat Sutton Coldfield 36-5 on Saturday in the second round, will travel to Eakring Road on Saturday, December 13.

Newport were beaten in the semi-finals last season by eventual winners Chester, who crashed out of the competition on the weekend against lower league Malvern.

Bridgnorth, the only other Shropshire side still in EDF action, also hit the road in the fourth round of the Senior Vase.

The All Blacks face Midlands 3 East South leaders Old Northamptonians on the same day.
