Looks like hes signing a 2 year contract there pending a medical. Another one who its time to sh1t or get off the pot. At that age where he needs regular football so hopefully he gets it there

[tetsujin1979]

The Austrian season kicked off with the first round of the Austrian cup yesterday, Noss came on for his first appearance for Blau Weiss as a second half substitute in a 5-1 win against neo-regional side Wallern

Edges him closer to having made 90 minutes worth of senior appearances in his career so far....at 22. And dont think hes had many serious injuries?

[Eirambler]

Never got a loan out from Borussia unfortunately. Leaves him with ground to make up now.

[Trequartista20]

Came on at half-time in BW Linz's second Bundesliga game of the season, a draw with Hartberg today, having done the same against Wolfsberger in their opener, so can't be too far off a starting place.


Incidentally, there can't be many Irish players capped at any level to have played in the Austrian top flight. Is he the first?

Eric Barber played for Wiener Sportsclub at the end of the 1960s for a number of matches.

[Trequartista20]

Broke into the BW Linz starting XI for their league game with LASK yesterday - a 0-2 defeat.

Good progress

[tetsujin1979]

First goal in senior football today, away to WSG Tirol

[seanfhear]

I was in Tirol in Austria once ~ ~ Beautiful place and nice people ~ ~ Spectacular mountains around there.

[Trequartista20]

Starts and assists the winner in BW Linz's surprise 0-1 win at champions RB Salzburg.

After losing four of the first five, BW Linz now unbeaten in their last three, winning two of those, and up to ninth.

He apparently got man of the match too

[pineapple stu]

Scored his first of the season today, and his first senior goal not for a B team.

But they lost 2-1, and it's seven games without a win now.

[tetsujin1979]

he scored in September as well, against Tirol

Goal from the weekend is here, at 1:22

Blau-Weiß Linz are in the relegation round in the Austrian Bundesliga, but should stay up. They're eight points ahead of bottom side Austria Lustenau with four games to go.
Noß has played 28 times in the league so far this season(18 starts, ten sub appearances), scoring twice, as well as three appearances in the Austrian Cup.
No harm in having a look at him in the two end of season friendlies

Something not adding up here for me. He is not a certain starter in one of the worst sides in the Austrian league but you fancy him for a call up?

For what it’s worth, there have only been 28 games in the Austrian league. So he’s played in all 31 games for them. Wouldn’t be too worried. He’s an attacking midfielder, they do tend to get rotated a bit.

In terms of guys who have yet to play for Ireland, I think he’s behind the likes of Connor Ronan and Jack Taylor - but I do like him and do think he has the ability to play for us…

[John83]

The Austrian league is more or less on a par with the Scottish league. I don't know if Red Bull have made it as top-heavy as Celtic do in Scotland, but if not then the lower ranked teams might be equivalent to mid-table Scottish sides. I'd generally treat a player at that level as someone to keep an eye on rather than to call up, but he's just gotten going there and might be worth scouting. Someone with a good eye for a player might argue he's worth a punt. Someone without that skill might overrate him. We'll see.

[Eirambler]

I'd see him as still being miles off a call-up to be honest.

Though, having said that, with no permanent manager in for the June games I can't see players exactly falling over themselves to take a couple of weeks out of their summer to play nothing games under an interim manager. So we might actually need to go down the depth chart a fair bit to pull a squad together this time around. I'd be surprised if we had to dig down as far as where Noss would be in the order though.

[JR89]

I'd call up someone from the U17s before even considering Noss.

[tetsujin1979]

Linz confirmed as staying up after the weekend's fixtures.
Linz beat Wolfsberger 2-0, and bottom club Austria Lustenau drew with Tirol, leaving them ten points behind Linz with three games to go

[elatedscum]

Scores to make it 1-0 v RB Salzburg after 13 mins. They went on to lose 5-1

I'm not sure about the level, but nice to see him doing something!

[Trequartista20]

Scored winner in the cup vs Weis.

BW Linz stand third in the league after 4 matches.

Great to see him doing well. What's that standard like? Do any of the sports channels show Austrian league ?

[tetsujin1979]

Scored at the weekend against Wolfsberger AC, 0:21 below

Seems to have been out injured a lot this season, that's his 13th appearance of the season, and only his third in 2025
Linz are having a good season though, in the Championship round after the split in the league, so they can't be relegated

Is now a free agent. Could be a standout signing for a League of Ireland team perhaps?
