Would good worker trip to provide crew? (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

journeyman

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'would good worker' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'trip to provide crew?' is the wordplay.
'trip' becomes 'journey' (journeying is a kind of tripping).
'to provide crew?' becomes 'man' (as in manning a ship).
'journey'+'man'='JOURNEYMAN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for journeyman that I've seen before include "Competent, but not exceptional, worker" , "Adequately competent worker" , "hired worker" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
