Life

Educated at Caulfield Grammar School, Kellaway joined his brother Duncan at Richmond in 1997, recruited with pick 71.[1] He was a defender, and in his best AFL season, 2000, he won the club's best and fairest award and was a member of the All-Australian Team,[2][3] at one stage playing 118 games in a row.[4]

He played International rules football for Australia in 2000 and 2002, playing as the goalkeeper in both years.[5] In the latter year he won the Jim Stynes Medal.[5]

He was delisted by Richmond at the end of the 2006 season at age 30, a decision made by the club that surprised many.[6]

In 2011, Kellaway, after a stint as a landscaper, became a firefighter.[7]
