Hungry in Verona out with us (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ravenous

'hungry' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'verona out with us' is the wordplay.
'out with' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'verona' mixed up with 'us' gives 'RAVENOUS'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for ravenous that I've seen before include "Really hungry, could eat a horse" , "starved?" , "needing to be fed" , "Really hungry, starving" , "Wolfish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
