Manoeuvre to draw us away from the centre (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

outwards

'away from the centre' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'manoeuvre to draw us' is the wordplay.
'manoeuvre' is an anagram indicator.
'to'+'draw'+'us'='todrawus'
'todrawus' with letters rearranged gives 'OUTWARDS'.

(Other definitions for outwards that I've seen before include "In an external direction" , "Away from the centre" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
