fair shake of the sauce bottle

Used to inform somebody that they’re taking more than their share or are engaged in some kind of unfair practice.

In June 2009, Australia's Prime Minister Kevin Rudd when persistently questioned by a reporter about how he'd arrived at a decision about the composition of his ministers, responded three times during an interview "Fair shake of the sauce bottle, mate." Critics thought he was trying too hard to use Australian slang to boost his popular appeal.
