Crossword Genius

Complain about the game? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grouse

This clue is a double definition.

'complain' is the first definition.
(grousing is a kind of complaining)

'the game?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'about' is the link.

(Other definitions for grouse that I've seen before include "Gripe; game bird" , "Plump game bird" , "Bellyache" , "Grumble like game-bird" , "Petty complaint" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
