After beginning his junior rugby at the Hunters Hill Rugby Club,[3] Kellaway went on to represent Australia at schoolboy and under-20 level. He captained the under-20 side in 2015.[4] His total of 10 tries at the 2014 IRB Junior World Championship broke the tournament record previously held by Julian Savea and Zac Guildford.[5]

Kellaway made his Super Rugby run-on debut for the Waratahs against the Brumbies in April 2016,[6] and the following week signed a further two-year contract with the team.[1]

On 12 June 2018, it was announced that Kellaway will join the English Premiership side Northampton Saints for the 2018-2019 season. After a successful start, playing opportunities dried up and he was released by the Saints at the end of the 2018-19 Season.
