Scholz edged out Hawthorn’s Mattea Breed and Geelong’s Rachel Kearns, while Munyard prevailed over Port Adelaide’s Gemma Houghton and the Western Bulldogs’ De Berry.
Power midfielder Maria Moloney drove the ball deep inside 50 as Scholz rose above a big pack, her teammates flocking towards her to celebrate.
Munyard put on the afterburners close to the boundary line, sneaking past two St Kilda defenders before composing herself and executing a superb checkside goal.
Scholz won $50,000 and 2 million Velocity Points for her grab, while Munyard also won $50,000, with $10,000 donated to her local club.
Both awards were decided by a combination of votes from the AFLW All-Australian Panel and the public.
