Will come after, you understand (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

follow

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'understand' is the definition.
(I know that follow is a type of understand)

'will come after you' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'will' could be 'll' (contracted form, as in 'he'll' - 'he will') and 'll' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for follow that I've seen before include "'____ and don't dilly-dally on the way'" , "Ensue" , "dog" , "Succeed; go after" , "Come next" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
