Dweba has vast experience, having played in Super Rugby for Cheetahs, the United Rugby Championship for Stormers and the French Top 14 with Bordeaux.
He says when he got the chance to work with Exeter boss Rob Baxter it was one he could not turn down.
He feels he has “grown as a player” while at Sandy Park, having become one of the experienced heads in the squad.
“As a young player you’re always looking at leaders that are older than you that have been in the system for such a long time,” he said.
“Now that role is reversed, now you are the bit of the old one, the guy with experience and stuff like that.
“It’s just how you channel your experience and how you actually speak to younger players. How can you help them help you?
Coming here he’s [Rob Baxter] actually helped me with that situation, saying, ‘listen, you are older, yes, you’ve got experience, but how can you take that experience, give it to a youngster to help him that it’s going to help you in the field,’.
“So that has helped me off the field and on the field.”
