Weekend Peer Review 102

Welcome to our weekend competition to compose a cryptic clue to be judged by your fellow contestants.

You may enter as many clues as you like, and everyone is welcome, particularly new entrants. Feel free to explain your clue. if you think it will help, or to ask another entrant to parse their clue.

Chat is welcome, but please don't comment on the merit of a particular clue prior to voting.

Clues should be posted before noon (UK time) on Sunday, October 17th when voting opens. Voting closes at 8 p.m. (UK time) the same day.

The winner of this week's competition will be the host for the following weekend. He or she may vary the rules or the voting system.

This weekend's challenge is:

TOERAG (6)
or
TOERAGGER (9)

Weekend rules: Each entrant has six votes to allocate across any of one to six clues (no fractional votes allowed). For example, the allocation might be 3/2/1 for the top 3 clues, and many other allocations are possible. In the event of a tie, the number of first place votes will be taken into consideration (if those are equal, 2nd place votes, etc).

Have fun and good luck!

Mattrom - just found an alt. Aussie meaning of “toe-rag” in the urban dictionary which is unworkable due to it’s utter crudeness!

Paul, I had started to wonder if I'd chosen an offensive word, though Chambers only has it as slang.
I picked it because I thought the 2 components had lots of synonyms .... "the best laid plans, etc" ...
