Andrew Kellaway (born 23 November 1975) is a former Australian rules football player who played for the Richmond Football Club in the AFL.

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]
