The side broke free early and only an inaccurate second quarter let them down from scoring in each term.
Nakeesaha Minter was the standout in front of goal for Saints with two in a side that enjoyed sharing the ball around.
It was the efforts of the likes of Paula Pavic in the ruck battle or through the middle as well as Ciaralii Parnell and Billie Byers that kept the momentum up.
In front of goal it was Natasha Medbury who scored both of the Magpies as they struggled to assert themselves against the Saints well setup defence, which included former Magpie Janet Baird.
