Support wobbly Orpheus (5,2)
I believe the answer is:
shore up
'support' is the definition.
(I know that shore up is a more specific form of support)
'wobbly orpheus' is the wordplay.
'wobbly' is an anagram indicator (I've seen this in other clues).
'orpheus' with letters rearranged gives 'SHORE-UP'.
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
