Extort warder (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

screw

I believe this is a double definition.

'extort' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'warder' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for screw that I've seen before include "Hack" , "Cheat" , "The Turn of the ___ , 1898 Henry James horror story" , "Prison officer (slang)" , "shot in pool hall" .)

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