Intend somehow to get canned! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tinned

'canned' is the definition.
('tin' can be a synonym of 'can')

'intend somehow' is the wordplay.
'somehow' indicates anagramming the letters.
'intend' with letters rearranged gives 'TINNED'.

'to get' is the link.

(Other definitions for tinned that I've seen before include "Canned" , "Sealed in a can" , "In cans" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
