Biography edit

In June 2012, Biss was named as one of eight inaugural players to join the Wellington Phoenix academy dubbed the 'Football School of Excellence'.[2] Owing to seven Phoenix players being away on international duty Biss and fellow FSE player Luke Rowe were called on to make their debuts in a Round 2 away fixture versus Melbourne Heart. Despite four players making their debut the Phoenix managed come away with a 1–1 draw, Biss played 87 minutes in midfield.[3]
