In late 2014, Kellaway began playing for the New South Wales Country Eagles in the National Rugby Championship.[6] He made his Super Rugby run-on debut for the Waratahs against the Brumbies in April 2016.[7] The following week, he signed a further two-year contract with the Waratahs.[8]
Kellaway joined English club Northampton Saints for the 2018–19 season.[9] He then signed with the Melbourne Rebels ahead of the 2020 season, but first playing for Counties Manukau in late 2019 alongside Sonny Bill Williams in New Zealand.[10]
Following a stint in Japan with NEC, Kellaway returned to the Rebels for the 2021 Super Rugby Trans-Tasman competition and was selected in the Wallabies squad for the mid-year tests by national coach Dave Rennie.[11] He made his international debut against France in July 2021 at Suncorp Stadium.[12]
