This clue could be a double definition.

'row' is the first definition.
(a tier is a row of things)

'strapper' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for tier that I've seen before include "he hasn't won?" , "One making knot - level" , "this person secures" , "Level - layer" , "Echelon" .)

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