Source
[FONT="][/FONT]Myles joins Cronulla forward Luke Douglas as new additions to the clubs forward pack for next season alongside existing representative players Ashley Harrison, Greg Bird and former NSW and Australian prop Luke Bailey.
Myles said he was pleased to be returning to Queensland after seven seasons in Sydney with the Roosters and Bulldogs in which he notched 120 NRL games as well as 14 games for Queensland and 3 Tests for Australia.
"I just felt the timing was right to return home to Queensland. I will now be living closer to family and friends who reside in South East Queensland and I know a few of the boys at the Titans which is great," said Myles.
Titans boss Michael Searle said Myles had always been in the Titans sights and would further add to the clubs playing roster.
"Having a high quality State of Origin player of Nate Myles calibre come to the club is a massive outcome for our club and the recruitment phase for season 2012," said Searle.

Titans Coach John Cartwright said Myles was the type of player who was only going to get better and would help fill the void left by some of the clubs more experienced forwards.
"Its great to be able to sign a current State of Origin player and I believe hes at a stage of his career where his best football is in front of him," said Cartwright.
