More foxy women tell stories in Irish (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wilier

'more foxy' is the definition.
('wily' can be a synonym of 'foxy')

'women tell stories in irish' is the wordplay.
'women' becomes 'w' (standard abbreviation).
'tell stories' becomes 'lie' (to tell stories is to lie or fib).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'irish' becomes 'IR' (abbreviation).
'lie' going into 'ir' is 'ilier'.
'w'+'ilier'='WILIER'

(Another definition for wilier that I've seen is " More cunning or devious".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
