Kit for rugby player burst tyre (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

property

'kit' is the definition.
(kit can mean property or equipment)

'rugby player burst tyre' is the wordplay.
'rugby player' becomes 'prop' (I've seen this before).
'burst' indicates an anagram.
'tyre' with letters rearranged gives 'erty'.
'prop'+'erty'='PROPERTY'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for property that I've seen before include "Stuff that is owned" , "Attribute; chattel" , "Tangible possession" , "Real estate" , "Asset" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
