Communication brought to me on the second green (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

message

'communication' is the definition.
(a message is something communicated)

'brought to me on the second green' is the wordplay.
'brought to' says to put letters next to each other.
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'the second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'green' becomes 'sage' (shade of green).
'me'+'s'='mes'
'mes'+'sage' is 'MESSAGE'.

(Other definitions for message that I've seen before include "Brief communication" , "Signal" , "The medium is the - (McLuhan)" , "Missive" , "meaning" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
