The sixth-placed Magpies sit a game outside the top-five after beating Terang Mortlake 42-35 on Saturday.

Camperdown coach Brooke Richardson said her team was aware of the challenge ahead of it if it wanted to be a part of the Hampden netball finals series.

"We're going to have to beat a couple of the top sides," she said.

"Having the two draws to two sides above us and having only lost to two of them by under 10 (goal earlier in the season), I know we are more than capable of doing it.

"Anyone is capable of beating anyone on any given day."

Richardson said bringing pressure and capitalising on turnovers would be "crucial in our next five weeks".

Richardson said the Bloods, who occupy bottom spot on the ladder, "challenged our shooters and feeders".

"Brooke Hoare is just a great defender and put that little bit of doubt into their minds at times," she said.

"It was a tough game, that's for sure. They have some good players in their side and will only get stronger."

In other games, Hamilton Kangaroos' emerging goal shooter Hollie Phillips was dominant with 43 goals in their 54-33 win against Port Fairy at Gardens Oval.

Nell Mitchell was on fire in the goal circle for Koroit in its 64-39 thumping of Portland at Victoria Park.

Mitchell finished with 47 goals to her name.
