Greedy types desire what everyone else has left? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pigswill

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

'everyone else has left?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'greedy types desire' is the wordplay.
'greedy types' becomes 'pigs' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'desire' becomes 'will' (I've seen this in another clue).
'pigs'+'will'='PIGSWILL'

'what' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pigswill that I've seen before include "kitchen waste" , "Scraps of food" , "Leftover food for the sty" , "Porcine feed" , "Scraps for swine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
