Dean Hawkins dummied through the line to score the first try after half-time, with Munro then proving too quick once again, burning the Magpies down the right touchline for his second of the evening.
The Magpies grabbed a second four-pointer after 63 minutes when Latu Fainu sent a looping cutout ball out to winger Solomon Alaimalo, who grabbed his seventh try at NSW Cup level.
