Carries joints (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shoulders

I believe this is a double definition.

'carries' is the first definition.
(shouldering is a kind of carrying)

'joints' is the second definition.
(shoulder is a kind of joint)

(Another definition for shoulders that I've seen is " Sure holds up these joints".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
