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

'he brings news' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'chaos at the green rally' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'chaos' could be 'mess' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'mess' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'green' is 'enger' which is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'of' acts as a link.
