It's disconcerting playing tiring Dubs (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

disturbing

'it's disconcerting' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'playing tiring dubs' is the wordplay.
'playing' is an anagram indicator.
'tiring'+'dubs'='tiringdubs'
'tiringdubs' anagrammed gives 'DISTURBING'.

(Other definitions for disturbing that I've seen before include "Upsetting" , "doing shiftwork?" , "Scary" , "Worrying" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times and the Irish Times (Crosaire).
