Jeers, provokes (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taunts

(Other definitions for taunts that I've seen before include "Remarks designed to provoke" , "Provocative remarks" , "Mocks, ridicules" , "'Jeers, provokes (6)'" , "Jibes" .)

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