Criticise guys going round taking ecstasy (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

slam

'criticise' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

(Other definitions for slam that I've seen before include "Shut (door) with force" , "A grand one is 13 tricks" , "Hit hard" , "If it's grand, it wins all 13 tricks in bridge game" , "Shut loudly and forcibly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
