Eccentric, creaky person prone to gas (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yacker

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

'person prone to gas' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'eccentric creaky' is the wordplay.
'eccentric' indicates an anagram.
'creaky' with letters rearranged gives 'YACKER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for yacker that I've seen is " Australian Labour".)
