Adheres to kindling (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sticks

This clue is a double definition.

'adheres' is the first definition.
('stick' can be a synonym of 'adhere')

'to kindling' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for sticks that I've seen before include "Old fogeys" , "basic furniture" , "bits of wood" , "Adheres" , "potentially breaking our bones?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
