Cast worth using (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

throw

'cast' is the definition.
(I know that cast can be written as throw)

'worth using' is the wordplay.
'using' is an anagram indicator (the letters used in a different way).
'worth' is an anagram of 'THROW'.

(Other definitions for throw that I've seen before include "Organise party" , "pitch or > floor" , "Deliberately lose" , "Cast, lob" , "shot-put event?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
