"I'm not just here like some daft wee laddie to learn," he said. "I feel I can offer something too. At the same time it's an opportunity to develop my coaching."
Munro is known for his ability to get the best from the players he works with - something Glasgow have been short of in recent months.
"You have to enjoy the game and the training," Munro reasons. "If you are going out there and approaching it as a job that has to be done to earn your monthly pay packet than you will lose. It's as simple as that."
Munro was openly critical of the professional club's lack of communication with the amateur clubs within the city, something he will be at pains to improve.
"You've got to tell clubs what's happening and I'd be perfectly happy fulfilling that role," he said. "After all, Sean and myself come from a club background and we know all those players pretty well."
Iain Morrison's excellent article goes on to detail the cutbacks that Glasgow are facing. He claims that Glasgow are suffering a disproportionate percentage of the SRU's cutbacks simply because, with so many players coming off contract, they are in a position to cut the budget while the others are not. Glasgow had the highest player budget last year as many of their players were signed three years ago when the salary market was buoyant and players get a rise when they became full caps. It now seems likely that many of Glasgow's higher earners won't be offered contracts for next season.
