Frank Seymour (14 May 1904 – 7 May 1987)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played with Carlton and Fitzroy in the VFL and Northcote in the VFA.

Seymour was a full-forward and was recruited from New South Wales to join Carlton in the 1927 season. After two seasons with Carlton he moved to Northcote where he became a prolific goalkicker. He played 201 times for the club, and was one of three players to play in all five of Northcote's premiership teams (1929, 1932, 1933, 1934 and 1936).[2] His 880 goals is the Northcote club record and he topped the VFA's goal kicking with over 100 goals in three separate seasons.
