Seymour: Confident Warriors can boost Scotland

No fewer than ten Warriors are in Scotland's starting XV to face Argentina this weekend, while another five take their place on the bench.

But it stands to reason that Scotland coach Vern Cotter would call upon so many men from Scotstoun, as the Warriors continue to prove they are a force to be reckoned with in the GUINNESS PRO12.

Following their first domestic final last year, Gregor Townsend's troops are flying high in second having lost one just once so far this season.

And wing Seymour says Glasgow's internationals will have no problem gelling with their fellow call-ups as Cotter continues to build a new era for Scotland.

"[The number of Glasgow players in the squad] helps a lot in the aspect that guys are coming in with a lot of confidence, with each other as well," Seymour told The Scotsman. "Guys are really confident enjoying playing their rugby. They're trying things, moving the ball around.

"It's great to see so many guys coming in from Glasgow. But that being said, the other guys that are coming in from England, France, wherever it may be - the vast majority if not all of them are incredibly confident individually.

"As a squad, we're focusing on bringing in those confidence levels domestically, but we focus on us as a unit. There can't be this void of certain partnerships from the same club being effective, and if a guy comes in from outside that, they can't be as effective.

"It is important that we focus as a Scottish rugby team, not as a collection of club-based players. We have to create an identity that is solely Scotland rugby."
