After playing out 2011 in Collingwood's VFL side, averaging 17 disposals, Seedsman made his debut in round 1 of the 2012 season, against Hawthorn. He established himself in the team in 2013, playing 17 matches and averaging 18.9 disposals as a rebounding defender capable of pushing onto the wing and forward. During the same season, he was also at the heart of a fallout between teammate Harry O'Brien and coach Nathan Buckley, with O'Brien reportedly taking issue with his teammates and Buckley calling Seedsman 'Lez' (a reference to his hairstyle at the time).
Seedsman injured his hip during the 2014 pre-season, requiring surgery. He returned to the side mid-season, before succumbing to an adductor injury ahead of Collingwood's round 19 match against Port Adelaide.
In October 2015, after playing 12 games for the season but only two after round 12, Seedsman requested a trade to Adelaide. He was officially traded to Adelaide on 19 October, having played 49 games for Collingwood.

Seedsman played his first game for Adelaide, and 50th overall, against North Melbourne in round 1 of the 2016 season. He went on to play 15 matches during which he averaged 17 disposals, although the latter part of his season was curtailed by injuries.
