Scallywags (6)

I think it could be either:

scamps

jokers

'scallywags' is the definition.
(I know this)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for scamps that I've seen before include "Mischevious young children" , "'Rascals, imps (6)'" , "Little rascals, mischievous children" , "Lively children" , "Scallywags" .)

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