Saint with silver for men only (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stag

'men only' is the definition.
(as in a stag do)

'saint with silver' is the wordplay.
'saint' becomes 'st' (abbreviation).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'silver' becomes 'Ag' (Ag is the chemical symbol for silver).
'st'+'ag'='STAG'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for stag that I've seen before include "Male deer; speculator" , "Hart" , "Male-only" , "Game - speculator" , "Adult male deer, often with antlers" .)
