Crossword Genius

Pull on an ear (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lug

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'pull' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'an ear' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'on' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for lug that I've seen before include "Drag, haul" , "Drag heavily" , "Pull - ear" , "Drag or carry with effort" , "Projecting piece; haul" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
