Suffer at home with rogue (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

incur

'suffer' is the definition.
(to incur is to suffer or experience)

'home with rogue' is the wordplay.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'rogue' becomes 'cur' (both can mean a despicable person).
'in'+'cur'='INCUR'

'at' is the link.

(Other definitions for incur that I've seen before include "Bring on oneself, say costs" , "Sustain" , "Arouse" , "contract" , "Become liable to (eg, a penalty)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
