The coastal side notified the Bulldogs shortly after 1pm they wouldn't be able to play on Saturday.
It comes as rain lashes the coast with the Bureau of Meteorology predicting widespread falls of 150mm to 250mm is likely along much of the NSW coast in the next three days with isolated totals in excess 400mm possible on top of what has already fallen, and flooding alerts were issued for the Hastings River.

The Oxley Highway was also closed between Walcha and Mount Seaview due to a landslip in Mount Seaview on Friday.
The game has become an annual trial between the two clubs.
Bulldogs men's coach Mick Schmiedel said it was disappointing. They had been starting to get some good numbers to training.
"But in our favour is we've only got to wait a week, we play Singleton next weekend," he said.
That game is in Singleton and is hoped to become an annual trial as well.
Following that they have a trial against Dubbo on April 17.
Schmiedel wasn't sure about the ladies league tag. The Bulldog's women are set to play Murrurundi.
